Frans Stracké1820–1898Peut-on la contempler ?
Amsterdam, Pays-Bas
Le propriétaire est connu. Si elle est exposée aujourd’hui, le musée ne le dit pas, et l’on ne nous a pas appris à deviner.
This sweet scene reflects increasing interest in the lives of fishermen. The statue shows a young woman holding her child, with her dog’s uppies gathered in her apron. Yet life is not a bed of roses for this barefoot fisherman’s wife. She has only two fish in her pouch, and the net
that she drags behind her is empty.
