A Woman Making Water
Rembrandt van Rijn (mentioned on object), 1631
The man assumes a confident stance and, without taking off his knapsack, produces a powerful stream. The woman does her business behind a tree and keeps a lookout for anyone who might be watching. Nowadays we deem these kinds of scenes as vulgar and inappropriate, but in Rembrandt’s day they were a popular source of amusement.
