This etching by Lucas van Uden, a prominent Dutch landscape painter, depicts the Capuchin monastery in Tervuren, Belgium. Dated between 1605 and 1673, the work showcases van Uden's meticulous attention to detail, particularly in the rendering of trees and the surrounding landscape. The composition highlights the building nestled amongst a dense grove of trees, with a winding path leading to the monastery. The use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and atmosphere, typical of van Uden's style, which influenced generations of landscape artists. This piece, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies van Uden's mastery of etching and his fascination with the natural world.
