European School (circa 1880) – A Mother's Duty (after Pieter De Hooch)
Oil on canvas. Original canvas. This copy of Pieter de Hooch's "A Mother's Duty" is a true gem of genre painting, a tribute to the silence and sacredness of everyday life. The work masterfully captures the essence of a 17th-century Dutch home, where light is not merely an artifice, but a divine presence filtering through the rooms, blessing the woman's devotion to her child. It is a tribute to patience and attentiveness: the artist, a talented copyist, has reproduced De Hooch's characteristic telescoping perspective, inviting us to look beyond, towards a sunlit courtyard that promises freedom, while in the foreground, the tenderness of a humble task is celebrated. Image dimensions without frame: 50 x 60 cm / 67.5 x 78 cm with a custom frame.
