Zittende man tussen boompjes in silhouet 1696 - 1765

This small-scale etching, created by Dutch artist Isaac Walraven between 1696 and 1765, depicts a seated man in silhouette surrounded by various natural elements. The use of silhouettes, a popular artistic technique of the time, creates a sense of mystery and intimacy within the scene. Walraven's attention to detail is evident in the carefully rendered trees and other flora surrounding the central figure. The simplicity of the design and the limited color palette emphasize the visual impact of the silhouette, making this a compelling example of 18th-century Dutch etching.
