Gezicht te Haarlem 1862

Anton Mauve's "Gezicht te Haarlem" is a delicate charcoal drawing depicting a serene Dutch landscape. Created in 1862, the artwork features a windmill overlooking a canal, surrounded by trees and a line of houses, while boats sail on the water. The soft, muted tones and detailed rendering of the natural elements contribute to a sense of tranquility and peaceful coexistence between man and nature, characteristic of Mauve's artistic style. The drawing, housed in the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into the picturesque charm of Haarlem, a town known for its rich history and cultural heritage.
