"Middeleeuwse soldaat met sikkel bespiedt van achter een rots een voorbij rijdende dame," is an 1861 lithograph by Belgian artist Charles De Groux. This small, intimate artwork, measuring just 177 mm by 124 mm, depicts a medieval soldier concealed behind a rock, observing a woman passing by. The work is executed in a dark, shadowy style, emphasizing the clandestine nature of the scene. It is a powerful example of De Groux's talent for depicting human figures in dynamic and emotionally charged poses. The artwork, now held in the Rijksmuseum, is an intriguing glimpse into the creative mind of a tragically short-lived yet influential artist.
