"De ruiter" (c. 1830) is a lithograph by Paulus Lauters, a Dutch artist known for his landscapes and genre scenes. The artwork depicts a rider on horseback, passing two seated figures in the foreground, with a distant village in the background. The composition is characteristic of Lauters' style, capturing a moment of everyday life with a focus on detail and atmospheric rendering.
