Landschap met figuren bij een meertje 1648 - 1650

Wenceslaus Hollar, a prolific Czech-born artist, created this etching, *Landschap met figuren bij een meertje* (Landscape with figures by a lake) in the mid-17th century. The piece depicts a serene landscape with a winding path leading to a group of figures walking through a forest. Hollar’s use of line and detail renders a sense of depth, highlighting the beauty of the natural world. The artwork, now located at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, showcases Hollar's mastery of etching, a technique he perfected during his time in England.
