"Gehöft mit mehreren Figuren, vorne ein Hund" (Farmyard with Several Figures, a Dog in the Foreground) is a watercolor by Dutch artist Jan Hulswit (1766-1822). It is currently on display at the Städel Museum. The artwork is a classic example of the Dutch tradition of depicting rural landscapes and scenes of daily life. The composition showcases a quiet village street, with several figures interacting amongst the rustic buildings and foliage. The soft, muted color palette and detailed brushstrokes create a tranquil and inviting atmosphere.
