Boom met een afgebroken top, een herder rechts op de voorgrond 1812 - 1832

André Paul de Beurs-Stiermans created this etching, *Boom met een afgebroken top, een herder rechts op de voorgrond*, during his brief career that spanned from 1812 to 1832. The print depicts a large tree with a broken top, with smaller trees clustered around it, creating a picturesque landscape scene. A shepherd stands prominently to the right, contributing to the pastoral feel of the artwork. This work highlights de Beurs-Stiermans's skill in etching, a technique where lines are incised into a metal plate to create an image. The fine detail and subtle shading within the print offer a glimpse into the artistic potential of this promising artist.
