Ontmoeting in een bos 1684 - 1743

"Ontmoeting in een bos" (Encounter in a Forest) is an etching by Jan Lamsvelt, a Dutch artist active in the 17th and 18th centuries. Created between 1684 and 1743, this small-scale work depicts a group of figures meeting in a forest setting. The composition features a dense woodland, a small hut, and a boat at the edge of the water. The scene is detailed, with intricately rendered trees, foliage, and figures. Lamsvelt's meticulous attention to detail and use of light and shadow create a sense of depth and atmosphere in the work. This etching is part of the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
