Trap aan het water 1810 - 1850

"Trap aan het water" (Stairs by the Water) is a drawing by Dutch artist Gerrit Lamberts, dating back to the first half of the 19th century. The drawing depicts a simple scene of a wooden staircase leading down to a small dock on a body of water. The composition is dominated by the staircase and its surroundings, with a small figure of a woman standing at the top. The piece is an example of Lamberts' skilled depiction of everyday scenes and the beauty found in ordinary elements. The drawing is now part of the Rijksmuseum collection.
