Otto Baron Howen's "Landschap met watermolen van Nimi bij Mons" is a detailed black and white print depicting a watermill near the Belgian town of Mons. Created between 1815 and 1830, the artwork showcases a picturesque landscape with the mill in the foreground and the town rising in the background. The print exhibits precise detailing, capturing the intricate mechanisms of the watermill and the peaceful atmosphere of the surrounding countryside. The inclusion of figures in the distance adds a sense of scale and human presence to the scene. Now part of the Rijksmuseum's collection, this print offers a glimpse into the daily life and rural beauty of 19th-century Belgium.
