Vervallen gebouw met rechts een houtsprokkelaarster 1782 - 1837

This watercolor painting, created between 1782 and 1837 by Dutch artist Pieter Bartholomeusz. Barbiers, depicts a crumbling building and two figures. The artist captures the rustic charm of the scene with detailed brushstrokes, highlighting the weathered stone and lush vegetation. A woman, likely gathering firewood, stands prominently against the building, drawing the viewer's eye to the central theme of human activity amidst nature's decay. The painting is a testament to Barbiers' skill in depicting everyday life with a touch of romanticism.
