Gartenhof mit Frau und Kind is a 1660 oil by Hendrick van der Burgh, a Dutch Golden Age work, held at Kunsthaus Zürich.
This painting depicts a serene scene of a woman and a young girl standing outside a brick building. The woman, dressed in a red dress and white head covering, holds a broom in her right hand and stands on the left side of the image. The girl, wearing a blue dress, stands on the right side, holding a small object in her hands. In the background, a white picket fence and a garden with various plants and flowers are visible. The artist's use of warm colors and soft lighting creates a sense of tranquility and intimacy in the scene. The woman's gentle pose and the girl's curious expression add to the overall sense of calmness.
