Naaister bij het raam 1847 - 1887

"Naaister bij het raam," a black and white lithograph by J. A. Ehnle, created sometime between 1847 and 1887, depicts a young woman seated by a window, meticulously sewing a garment. The composition highlights the meticulous detail of her work, drawing the viewer's eye to the delicate lace she's crafting. The quiet domesticity of the scene, with a birdcage and a potted plant adding touches of life, evokes a sense of peaceful solitude. The artwork's small scale, measuring just 328 mm high and 231 mm wide, suggests it was intended for private viewing, adding an intimate quality to the image.
