IJsgezicht met een baksteenoven c. 1755 - 1760

"IJsgezicht met een baksteenoven" (Ice Scene with a Brick Oven) is an etching created by the French artist Jacques Aliamet around 1755-1760. The print, which is now in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a winter scene in the Netherlands. The etching shows figures ice skating and walking across a frozen canal, while a brick oven in the distance provides a source of warmth. The depiction of the snow-covered landscape and the figures enjoying winter activities is a classic example of Dutch Golden Age art. The work is a testament to the skill of the French artist and his ability to capture the beauty and charm of Dutch life.
