Met water bedekte rots 1858 - 1859

"Met water bedekte rots" (Rock Covered with Water) is a pencil sketch by Dutch artist Johannes Tavenraat, completed between 1858 and 1859. This drawing is a study for a larger painting, likely depicting a landscape scene featuring a rock formation partially submerged in water. The delicate lines and minimal detail suggest a preliminary sketch, highlighting Tavenraat's observational skills and the artist's approach to composition. The sketch is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, providing insights into Tavenraat's artistic process and the development of his landscape paintings.
