Rivierlandschap met een molen Possibly 1906 - 1909

Willem Witsen’s *Rivierlandschap met een molen*, dated between 1906 and 1909, is a preliminary sketch in pencil on paper. The piece, housed in the Rijksmuseum, captures a picturesque riverside scene featuring a windmill in the distance. The artist’s quick strokes and loose lines, characteristic of his style, highlight the spontaneity of the landscape and the fleeting nature of light. This is a prime example of Witsen's signature style, known for its expressive use of line and tonal values.
