Colorful old woman - Kleurrijke oude vrouw

This is a 90 years old resident of one of the houses in the Begijnhof in the Dutch city of Breda. I met her by chance and she struck me with her, given her age, colorful clothes and hat. I was allowed to take this portrait of her in front of her own home.
Walking is now not so easy for her. She spends her free time with reading philosophical books and making beautiful paintings. She has no internet, so I printed the pictures to deliver them soon to her.
And in the meantime I delivered the photos to her, she was very happy.

Dit is een 90-jarige bewoonster van één van de woningen in het Begijnhof te Breda. Ik kwam haar toevallig tegen en ze viel mij op door haar, gelet op haar leeftijd, kleurrijke kleding en hoed. Ik mocht dit portret van haar maken voor haar eigen woning.
Lopen gaat ondertussen niet meer zo gemakkelijk voor haar. Haar vrije tijd brengt ze door met het lezen van filosofische boeken en het maken van schilderijen. Ze heeft geen internet en daarom heb ik de gemaakte foto's geprint om haar die binnenkort te bezorgen.
En inmiddels heb ik die belofte ingelost, ze was er heel blij mee.
