Gezicht op een vervallen muur in een landschap c. 1828 - 1897

This watercolor sketch, titled "Gezicht op een vervallen muur in een landschap," (View of a dilapidated wall in a landscape), was created by Adrianus Eversen between 1828 and 1897. Eversen, born in 1818, was a Dutch artist known for his landscapes and architectural studies. The work captures a crumbling stone wall, likely part of a ruin, set against a backdrop of trees and a misty, atmospheric sky. The sketch exhibits a delicate use of watercolor, showcasing Eversen's sensitivity to light and his mastery of capturing the subtle nuances of nature. The faint outlines and washes of color suggest a quick but evocative study, indicative of Eversen's artistic practice.
