Stadsgezicht aan een rivier 1819 - 1861

"Stadsgezicht aan een rivier" (Cityscape on a River) is a pencil drawing by Dutch artist Joannes van Liefland, created between 1819 and 1861. The artwork depicts a serene cityscape, with a river in the foreground and a row of buildings along the bank. Van Liefland's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the depiction of the architecture, the figures on the riverbank, and the sailboats navigating the water. The muted tones of the drawing create a sense of calm and tranquility, characteristic of Romanticism, which was a significant art movement during van Liefland's lifetime.
