Carel Nicolaas Storm van 's-Gravesande's etching "Varkensstal en mesthoop in landschap" (c. 1875), housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a humble rural scene. The artwork showcases a simple barn, likely used for storing manure or animal feed, with a fence and a few pigs in the foreground. The composition is straightforward, capturing the everyday life of a Dutch farm in the 19th century. This etching is a testament to the artist's skill in portraying a seemingly ordinary scene with realism and detail.
