Figuren bij ruïne op rivieroever 1650 - 1695

This etching by Adam Perelle, created between 1650 and 1695, depicts a picturesque scene of figures gathered around a ruined structure on the bank of a river. The artist masterfully captures the detail of the crumbling columns, lush foliage, and the bustling activity of the figures. Perelle's work is known for its meticulous attention to detail and harmonious composition, evident in this print, which is housed in the Rijksmuseum. The use of light and shadow further enhances the depth and realism of the scene, making this print a classic example of Perelle's masterful approach to landscape art.
