Do you know how to crochet? If yes, who taught you? Comment below. Drawings curator Casey Lee reflects, "When I was around the age of the girl in the drawing, I learned how to crochet under the gaze of my mother and grandmother." In this drawing, made when the artist was just 12, the young Ter Borch captures an intimate moment between a woman and a young girl. "When I think about this drawing, I think about how adults try to impart skills that will shape children as they grow: the patience they find to teach the young and the pride they feel when they watch them succeed."
