Rivierlandschap 1844 - 1896

"Rivierlandschap" (River Landscape) is a delicate ink drawing by Dutch artist Willem de Famars Testas, created between 1844 and 1896. The piece depicts a serene river scene with a cluster of trees on the opposite bank, a small cottage on the left, and a boat moored at the water's edge. The light washes of ink and the subtle shading create a peaceful atmosphere, reflecting the artist's keen observation of nature. Testas was known for his skillful use of ink and wash techniques, and his works often captured the beauty and tranquility of the Dutch countryside. This drawing is a testament to his talent for depicting the natural world in a hauntingly beautiful and evocative manner.
