Converserende man en vrouw op een landweg 1812

"Converserende man en vrouw op een landweg" (1812) by Jacob Ernst Marcus is a black and white etching of a man and woman engaged in conversation. The scene takes place in a rural setting with a path leading through a wooded area. The woman sits with a contemplative expression while the man approaches carrying a basket. This artwork is a fine example of Marcus's detailed style and characteristic depiction of everyday life in 19th-century Netherlands. The etching, measuring 166 mm in height and 195 mm in width, currently resides in the Rijksmuseum.
