"Boerenkar" (c. 1864-1867) is a pencil drawing by Dutch artist Maria Vos, known for her detailed depictions of everyday life. The drawing, housed in the Rijksmuseum, captures the simple beauty of a farmer's cart, possibly abandoned in a field. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the rendering of the cart's wooden frame and the wheel's spokes. This work exemplifies Vos's skill in capturing the essence of rural Dutch life through her realistic and evocative sketches.
