Man met paard in heuvellandschap 1822 - 1880

"Man met paard in heuvellandschap" (Man with Horse in a Hilly Landscape) is an etching by Dutch artist Louis Charles Hora Siccama, created between 1822 and 1880. The artwork, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a man leading a horse laden with sacks through a hilly landscape. The detailed etching, with its fine lines and subtle shading, captures the rural scene with a sense of quiet realism. Siccama, known for his landscapes and genre scenes, often depicted everyday life in the Dutch countryside, offering a glimpse into the lives of ordinary people during his time. This etching is a prime example of his skillful use of line and detail to create evocative and engaging images.
