Le Devin du Village (Colette Weeping) is a 1779 ink by Pietro Antonio Martini, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This black-and-white print shows two people in a garden. The woman, dressed in a fancy dress with a hat, stands with her hand on her chest, looking down. The man, in a long coat and hat, points toward something near a tree. Behind them, a house and a church steeple are visible in the distance. The woman’s pose suggests sadness, while the man seems to be explaining or showing her something. The scene looks like a quiet moment caught in time. Next, look up etching to see how this print was made.
