Boerderij en schuur 1822 - 1893

"Boerderij en schuur" is a simple yet expressive drawing by Dutch artist Willem (II) Troost, created sometime between 1822 and 1893. The drawing depicts two structures, a farmhouse and a barn, sketched in delicate pencil lines with a touch of watercolor. The light and airy style suggests a quick observation, capturing the essence of rural architecture in Troost's signature style. This work, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into the artist's personal sketchbook, revealing his keen eye for detail and his fascination with the everyday life of the Dutch countryside.
