"Halfnaakt kind met kruis" (1630 - 1652), a small etching by Pieter van Avont (1600-1652) depicts a nude child holding a cross. The child sits on a rock, facing right with a serene expression. This drawing displays typical characteristics of the Baroque style, characterized by dramatic lighting and a focus on emotional expression. Van Avont's work is now part of the collection of the Rijksmuseum, known for its impressive collection of Dutch and European art.
