Landschap in Kralingen bij de Strekkade 1864 - 1880

Johannes Tavenraat's "Landschap in Kralingen bij de Strekkade" is a watercolor painting depicting a rural landscape, likely near the Dutch city of Rotterdam. Executed between 1864 and 1880, the artwork features a field of reeds and grasses in the foreground, with a line of trees and a distant church tower visible in the background. The artist's loose brushstrokes and delicate washes of color create a sense of atmospheric depth and evoke the subtle beauty of the Dutch countryside. Tavenraat was known for his landscapes and this piece is a good example of his work.
