Scene uit Pefroen met het schaapshoofd 1734 - 1801

Jacobus Buys's "Scene uit Pefroen met het schaapshoofd" (1734-1801) is a detailed pen and ink drawing depicting a street scene in the Netherlands. The drawing features a man carrying a basket, likely a vendor, in the foreground, walking away from a seated figure. The composition showcases Buys's meticulous attention to detail, including the cobblestone street and the buildings lining the street. This work, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into everyday life in 18th-century Dutch society.
