Willem Bastiaan Tholen's etching, "Plas met riet en watermolen, bij Giethoorn", depicts a serene Dutch landscape. The artwork, created between 1870 and 1931, showcases a small windmill nestled among tall reeds and trees along a placid canal. The artist's use of linework and hatching creates a sense of depth and texture, conveying the stillness of the water and the lush greenery. The etching is currently housed at the Rijksmuseum. The artwork offers a glimpse into the picturesque landscapes of Giethoorn, known for its canals and charming architecture, which captured the attention of Dutch artists like Tholen.
