"The Artist's Grandmother, Mrs. M. Otten-van Steenbergen" is a notable painting by Dutch artist Dick Ket (1902–1940), who is recognized for his contributions to the magic realist movement in art. Created in 1933, this work is a poignant example of Ket's meticulous and introspective style, which often featured still lifes, self-portraits, and portraits of those close to him, rendered with a heightened sense of realism and a touch of the surreal.

The painting is a portrait of the artist's grandmother, Mrs. M. Otten-van Steenbergen, and is exemplary of Ket's attention to detail and his ability to capture the essence of his subjects. The work is characterized by its subdued color palette and the serene, contemplative mood it evokes, which is typical of Ket's oeuvre. The artist's use of light and shadow, as well as his precise brushwork, contribute to the lifelike quality of the portrait, inviting viewers to engage with the sitter's character and the intimate space she occupies.

As with many of Ket's paintings, "The Artist's Grandmother" reflects his personal struggles with health issues, including a heart condition that confined him to his home and influenced his introspective approach to art. The painting not only serves as a testament to his technical skill but also offers insight into the artist's private world and the relationships that shaped his life and work.

Held in high regard for its artistic merit and emotional depth, "The Artist's Grandmother, Mrs. M. Otten-van Steenbergen" is considered an important piece within Dick Ket's body of work and contributes to the understanding of magic realism in the context of 20th-century Dutch painting. The painting is also significant for its role in documenting the artist's family history and personal experiences, making it a valuable piece for both art historians and admirers of Ket's art.
