"Bosrijk landschap met een vrouw en een jongen" (Wooded Landscape with a Woman and a Boy) is a delicate etching created by Gerrit Jan Michaëlis, a Dutch artist born in 1775 and active until his death in 1857. The artwork depicts a serene woodland scene with a winding path leading towards a distant hill. The composition is characterized by detailed depictions of trees and foliage, reflecting Michaëlis's keen observation of nature. A small figure of a woman and child traversing the path adds a human element to this tranquil landscape. This etching, measuring just 107 mm by 149 mm, exemplifies Michaëlis's mastery of the medium and his enduring interest in capturing the beauty of the natural world.
