Staande vrouw met rijzweep 1832 - 1902

"Staande vrouw met rijzweep" (Standing Woman with Riding Crop) is a 19th-century etching by Dutch artist Karel Frederik Bombled (1822-1902). The artwork, housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a woman standing on a clifftop, her gaze directed towards the distance. Her attire, including a riding crop and hat, suggests a sense of leisure and societal standing. The etching's delicate lines and light shading create a sense of depth and atmosphere, capturing the quiet solitude of the scene. The artwork's subject and style are characteristic of Bombled's work, which often explored scenes of everyday life with a focus on realism and observation.
