Landscape with a Cottage 1865 - 1904

Théophile de Bock's "Landscape with a Cottage" (1865-1904) is a watercolor painting that captures a serene scene of a Dutch countryside. The artwork features a single-story farmhouse with a red roof partially obscured by trees, a field, and a vibrant sky with puffy clouds. The muted tones and delicate brushstrokes create a sense of tranquility and quiet beauty. This small-scale work, currently in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, showcases de Bock's mastery of capturing the fleeting moments of nature.
