Painting Description
"Old Beggar Woman with a Gourd" is an etching by the Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn, created in approximately 1629-1630. This work is cataloged as Hollstein 168, H.80; Bartsch 30-16, following the numbering system of the respective catalogues that document Rembrandt's prints. The etching is part of a series of studies of beggars and low-life characters that Rembrandt produced during his early career in Leiden and Amsterdam, which reflect his interest in depicting the social realities of his time with empathy and psychological depth.
The etching portrays an elderly woman, hunched over and dressed in tattered clothing, holding a gourd, which was commonly used as a drinking vessel by the poor. The image is characterized by its fine detail and the use of light and shadow to convey the texture of the woman's garments and the expression on her face. Rembrandt's skillful handling of the etching needle demonstrates his mastery of the medium and his ability to capture the human condition with both realism and compassion.
"Old Beggar Woman with a Gourd" is an example of Rembrandt's exploration of the human figure and his ongoing interest in the lives of ordinary people. The etching is held in various collections and has been studied for its artistic and historical significance, offering insight into the social context of the 17th century Netherlands as well as the artist's own development and influences. As with many of Rembrandt's prints, this work has been subject to scholarly analysis and has contributed to the understanding of his oeuvre as a printmaker.
