Vrouw in landschap met boerderij en schuur 1847 - 1875

"Vrouw in landschap met boerderij en schuur" (Woman in Landscape with Farm and Barn), an etching by Willem Roelofs, captures a serene Dutch landscape scene. Created between 1847 and 1875, the work showcases the artist's keen eye for detail and atmospheric light. The composition is dominated by a farm building, its thatched roof casting a shadow over the foreground. A woman, visible in the distance, adds a sense of scale and solitude to the scene. The etching, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to Roelofs's mastery of the genre, reflecting a period in Dutch art marked by a renewed appreciation for nature's beauty.
