Bergachtige landschap met rivier en dorpje 1797 - 1870

This delicate pencil drawing by Andreas Schelfhout, titled *Bergachtige landschap met rivier en dorpje* (Mountainous Landscape with River and Village), captures a serene Dutch scene. The artwork, dated between 1797 and 1870, depicts a river winding through a mountainous landscape, leading the viewer's eye to a small village nestled in the distance. Schelfhout's signature, "A.S.", appears in the lower left corner, indicating his authorship. This drawing, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases Schelfhout's talent for capturing the subtle nuances of light and shadow, characteristic of his Romanticism-inspired landscapes.
