Rivierlandschap met hengelaar op een steiger 1886

"Rivierlandschap met hengelaar op een steiger" by Elias Stark is a depiction of a serene river landscape with a fisherman standing on a pier. Created in 1886, the etching showcases Stark's mastery of detail, capturing the subtle textures of the water, reeds, and foliage. The lone fisherman, a tiny figure against the vastness of the river, evokes a sense of solitude and contemplation, inviting the viewer to share in the peaceful atmosphere. The piece is currently held in the Rijksmuseum, a testament to Stark's lasting legacy as a renowned Dutch artist.
