Middagmaal 1903 - 1920

"Middagmaal" (Dutch for "Midday Meal") is a lithograph depicting a simple meal taking place in a modest, rural setting. The artwork, created between 1903 and 1920 by the Senefelder printing company, features a couple seated at a table near a fireplace, with a young child on the woman's lap. This piece captures the intimate and often understated nature of daily life in a rural environment. The artwork's monochrome tone emphasizes the scene's simplicity and realism. Lithography, a technique of printing from a flat surface, was widely used in the late 19th and early 20th centuries for creating prints that captured realistic details. The piece's dimensions are 333 mm in height and 456 mm in width.
