Landschap met een man met varkens 1637 - 1679

This etching by Philips Augustijn Immenraet, dated between 1637 and 1679, depicts a pastoral landscape with a man herding pigs. Immenraet, a Dutch Golden Age artist, captures the serene beauty of the countryside with detailed rendering of trees, fields, and a distant church. The composition, typical of Dutch landscape drawings, features a clear horizon and a sense of depth, drawing the viewer’s eye towards the horizon line. The etching, now in the Rijksmuseum collection, showcases Immenraet's skill in capturing the quietude and harmony of the natural world.
