Woman with a Urinating Child
Rembrandt van Rijn, c. 1658 - c. 1660
A woman helps a boy who has to pee. She lifts up his little tunic so that he can direct his stream towards the canal. The sketch of the horse’s head, on the left, has nothing to do with these figures. Rembrandt may have been drawing a horse when he suddenly witnessed and recorded the scene with the woman and child.
