"Landskab med en fontæne og et æsel" (Landscape with a Fountain and a Donkey) is an etching created by the Dutch artist Albert Meyering between 1645 and 1714. The etching, now held in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst in Copenhagen, depicts a pastoral scene with a donkey drinking from a stream and a figure drawing water from a fountain. Meyering's precise, detailed style captures the quiet beauty of the landscape and the simple acts of daily life. This artwork is representative of the Dutch Golden Age, a time of prosperity and artistic excellence.
