Trap naar een houten huis te Ilsenburg in de Harz 1864 - 1936

"Trap naar een houten huis te Ilsenburg in de Harz" is a graphite drawing by Dutch artist Jan van Essen, created between 1864 and 1936, and currently located in the Rijksmuseum. The drawing depicts a set of wooden stairs leading up to a small wooden house nestled amongst foliage in the Harz Mountains. Van Essen, known for his landscapes and architectural drawings, masterfully captures the details of the scene, conveying the textures of wood, stone, and leaves with delicate lines and shading. The drawing, measuring 265 mm by 171 mm, is a beautiful example of Van Essen's ability to translate the natural world onto paper.
