Vrouw uit Rome voedt een kind 1819

"Vrouw uit Rome voedt een kind" (Roman Woman Feeds a Child) is an 1819 etching by Italian artist Bartolomeo Pinelli. The scene depicts a Roman woman in traditional attire, kneeling and feeding a baby. Another young girl, perhaps the child's older sister, stands nearby holding a bucket. In the background, other women are engaged in daily tasks, giving a glimpse of everyday life in Rome during this period. Pinelli's work is known for its meticulous detail and his ability to capture the spirit and atmosphere of Roman life. The etching, measuring 205 mm by 280 mm, is a charming example of Pinelli's skill in depicting both the mundane and the poignant aspects of human experience.
