10083 Marcellin-Gilbert Desboutin (1823–1902) – Mother and Child with Toy Wagon – Drypoint (1880)
This drypoint etching depicts an intimate genre scene of a mother and child. The woman is shown leaning her head affectionately on a railing, gazing down toward the small child seated beside a toy wagon on the floor. The illustration is rendered in a rapid, spontaneous sketching style, utilizing the rich, velvety line work characteristic of drypoint etching, typical of late 19th-century French graphic art.
Marcellin-Gilbert Desboutin was a French painter, writer, and printmaker who was a notable figure in the Parisian artistic circles of the Impressionist and Post-Impressionist periods. He is best known for his atmospheric portraits and figure studies rendered almost exclusively in drypoint etching, a technique he mastered to achieve a spontaneous, textured, and deeply personal line quality.
