Jager in een bos 1812 - 1879

Cornelis Gerrit Verburgh's "Jager in een bos" (Hunter in a Forest), a black and white lithograph from 1812-1879, depicts a hunter with his dog walking through a woodland near a castle. The meticulous detail of the trees, water, and the distant castle highlights Verburgh's skill as a landscape artist. The image evokes a sense of tranquility and solitude, reflecting the Romantic era's fascination with nature. The artwork, currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to the enduring allure of the Dutch countryside.
