Moeder voedt haar baby 1842

"Moeder voedt haar baby" (Mother Feeds her Baby) is a 1842 lithograph by Dutch artist Willem (I) Linnig. The artwork depicts a woman seated in a dimly lit interior, cradling a baby while a child sits nearby, seemingly watching something out of the window. Linnig's work is known for its focus on everyday life in the Netherlands and his masterful use of light and shadow. The lithograph is a poignant depiction of motherhood and domesticity, a theme often explored in 19th-century art. "Moeder voedt haar baby" is currently held at the Rijksmuseum.
