River Scene 17th century

"River Scene" is a 17th-century drawing by Flemish artist Jan Brueghel the Elder. The work depicts a river scene with multiple boats, featuring numerous figures, and a single tree on the horizon. Brueghel's drawing is a fine example of his use of pen and brown ink to capture the beauty and detail of the natural world. The artwork is currently on view at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
