Constantijn Huygens II, a Dutch Golden Age artist, created the etching "Veer te Dieren" possibly in 1679. The piece depicts a landscape scene, most likely in the Netherlands, showcasing a windmill and a body of water with surrounding trees. The etching's delicate lines and light shading create a sense of depth and atmosphere, typical of Huygens' style. The subject matter, a windmill and a ferry (veer) is representative of Dutch landscapes and everyday life in the 17th century.
