Bomen langs het water 1836 - 1913

"Bomen langs het water" is a black and white etching created by Willem (I) Steelink between 1836 and 1913. The etching depicts a peaceful riverside landscape dominated by the thick foliage of trees that hang over the water. The composition is framed by a band of trees that create a visual tunnel through which the viewer looks into the scene. The etching provides a glimpse into the artist's artistic process and his skill with line and tone. The detailed depiction of trees and the subtle reflections in the water give the scene a sense of depth and realism.
