Naaiende vrouw 1889 - 1943

"Naaiende Vrouw" (Sewing Woman) is a woodcut by Salomon Garf, created between 1889 and 1943. The piece, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a woman seated by a window, engaged in needlework. The stark contrast between light and dark, achieved through the woodcut technique, highlights the woman's form and the domestic scene, capturing a moment of quiet contemplation. Garf's work often focused on ordinary people and their everyday lives, making this piece a poignant example of his artistic style.
