Panorama med en flod, i forgrunden et dobbeltstammet træ 1647

"Panorama med en flod, i forgrunden et dobbeltstammet træ" is an etching by Dutch artist Herman Saftleven, created in 1647. The print showcases a panoramic view of a river winding through a picturesque landscape, dominated by a prominent double-trunked tree in the foreground. Saftleven was known for his detailed renderings of nature, and this work exemplifies his meticulous attention to detail in depicting foliage, the meandering river, and the surrounding countryside. The scene is enhanced by the presence of figures observing the vista, adding a touch of human presence to the otherwise serene landscape. This etching, now housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, is a testament to Saftleven's mastery of the art of landscape etching.
