"Vecchia che conta le monete" (English: "Old Woman Counting Coins") is a 17th-century painting by the Dutch Golden Age artist Matthias Stom, also known as Matthias Stomer. Stom, who was active during the early to mid-1600s, was known for his Caravaggesque style, characterized by dramatic chiaroscuro and a focus on realism and the emotional state of his subjects.

The painting depicts an elderly woman, illuminated by a soft light source, as she attentively counts coins. The work is a fine example of Stom's mastery of light and shadow, which not only enhances the three-dimensionality of the figure but also contributes to the narrative and emotional depth of the scene. The subject matter reflects a common theme in Dutch and Flemish art of the time, where everyday activities and individuals from various walks of life were portrayed with dignity and a sense of importance.

"Vecchia che conta le monete" is often noted for its meticulous attention to detail, from the wrinkles on the woman's face to the texture of her clothing and the coins she handles. The painting's composition and the use of light are reminiscent of the works of Caravaggio, whom Stom greatly admired and whose influence is evident in many of Stom's works.

While the exact date of the painting's creation is not known, it is generally attributed to Stom's mature period, when he had fully developed his signature style after spending time in Rome and being exposed to the works of Caravaggio and his followers. The painting is a testament to the cultural exchange between Northern and Southern European artists during the Baroque period and exemplifies the international influence of Caravaggesque painting.

As of the knowledge cutoff date, the current location of "Vecchia che conta le monete" is not specified, and further details about its provenance and critical reception over time would require additional research. The work remains an important piece within Stom's oeuvre, offering insight into the social and artistic preoccupations of the 17th century.
