Twee figuren met een hond en een kat 1720 - 1792

"Twee figuren met een hond en een kat" is a print by Dutch artist Aert Schouman, created between 1720 and 1792. The artwork portrays a man and a woman in a domestic setting, each holding a pet: the man a cat, the woman a small dog. This print is an excellent example of Schouman's talent for depicting intimate scenes of daily life, a common theme in 18th-century Dutch art. The work is held in the Rijksmuseum, and its small dimensions, 200 mm x 157 mm, suggest its intended function as a private collectible.
