Eight peasants in a rustic interior 1635 - 1675

This etching, titled "Eight Peasants in a Rustic Interior," was created by Jacques Dassonville between 1635 and 1675. The piece depicts a group of eight peasants gathered in a humble interior, capturing their daily life and interactions. The detailed lines and hatching used in the etching highlight the textures of the scene and the individual figures, offering a glimpse into the artist's masterful technique. The intimate and realistic portrayal of peasant life during this period makes this piece a significant example of 17th-century Dutch art and is now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
