Jongen staande bij een ladder en een mand 1874 - 1925

"Jongen staande bij een ladder en een mand" is a graphite drawing by Dutch artist Jan Veth. Created between 1874 and 1925, the artwork portrays a young boy standing next to a ladder and a basket, likely a depiction of everyday life in the Netherlands during that time. Veth's meticulous attention to detail and skillful use of shading give a sense of realism to the figure, highlighting the boy's clothing, the textured basket, and the worn wooden ladder. This drawing, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies Veth's talent for capturing the essence of ordinary moments and bringing them to life through his art.
