Vaart tussen bomen 1908

"Vaart tussen bomen" (Canal Between Trees) is a 1908 drawing by Dutch artist Jan Toorop, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum. The work depicts a tranquil canal winding through a grove of trees, with two figures faintly visible in the distance. Toorop’s signature style of elongated lines and muted, pastel hues creates a sense of peaceful serenity in the scene. This artwork is a prime example of Toorop’s transition from Symbolism to a more naturalistic style, reflecting his interest in the Dutch landscape.
