"Landschap met molen" (Landscape with windmill) is a black and white etching by Dutch artist Jan Vrolijk, created between 1860 and 1885. The etching depicts a windmill on the edge of a waterway with a distant cityscape in the background. A small sailboat is seen in the water along with numerous birds flying overhead, and the scene is rendered with meticulous detail. This piece reflects Vrolijk's interest in capturing the beauty of the Dutch landscape, particularly the picturesque waterways and windmills that were so prevalent in the Netherlands at the time. It is currently part of the Rijksmuseum collection.
