Rokende man 1748 - 1795

"Rokende man" (Smoking Man) is a 1748 - 1795 etching by Dutch artist Jan Chalon (1738 - 1795). The artwork depicts a man in a hat smoking a pipe, leaning against a window sill. Chalon, known for his detailed and expressive style, captures the man's thoughtful expression and the textured quality of his clothing. The etching's composition, with the man framed by the window, creates a sense of intimacy and invites viewers to contemplate the man's thoughts.
