Meisje met hond op een straathoek 1915

"Meisje met hond op een straathoek," created by Nelly Spoor in 1915, is a charming illustration depicting a group of children and an elderly woman on a street corner. Spoor, known for her illustrations in books and magazines, captures the innocence of childhood with her detailed linework and gentle watercolor washes. The composition suggests a fleeting moment in time, with the figures interacting casually against a backdrop of buildings and a sign for "Mel de Si." This work exemplifies the artist's ability to evoke everyday life and charm through her detailed depictions of children and their activities.
