Pijprokende visser te Scheveningen 1825 - 1835

"Pijprokende visser te Scheveningen" is a lithograph by Jean-Baptiste Madou, depicting a fisherman from Scheveningen, Netherlands, smoking a pipe. Created between 1825 and 1835, the work captures the casual everyday life of a working-class man, showcasing his traditional clothing. Madou's focus on depicting ordinary people and their activities contributes to the realism and social commentary often found in his lithographs. This piece, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, demonstrates Madou's mastery of capturing the details of everyday life in 19th-century Europe.
