Meisje geeft planten water c. 1900 - 1930

"Meisje geeft planten water" (Girl gives plants water) is a charming black and white ink drawing by Dutch artist Elly Verstijnen, dating from the early 20th century. The artwork depicts a young girl, positioned within a window frame, carefully watering a line of potted plants on a windowsill. The delicate lines and simple composition convey a sense of domesticity and childhood innocence, characteristic of Verstijnen's style. The drawing's small size, measuring 179mm x 153mm, adds to its intimate and endearing quality. This piece is likely an illustration, hinting at the artist’s skill in capturing everyday moments with gentle humor and warmth.
