Grote paardenmarkt 1735

"Grote paardenmarkt" (Large Horse Market) is an etching by Jean Moyreau created in 1735. The print depicts a bustling marketplace, with figures gathered around horses for sale. The scene is set in a rural landscape, with a river and distant town in the background. The composition is balanced, with the central group of figures drawing the viewer's eye towards the focal point of the market. The artwork, now in the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into 18th-century Dutch life and the importance of the horse trade.
