Landschap met figuren en een gebouw met een ronde toren c. 1862 - 1864

This is a pencil sketch on paper by Johannes Tavenraat, a Dutch landscape painter. The artwork depicts a landscape with figures and a building with a round tower, likely inspired by the artist's travels through the countryside. This quick sketch is a characteristic example of Tavenraat's artistic practice, capturing fleeting moments and impressions of the natural world in a spontaneous and expressive manner. The sketch is housed at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, and dates from the 1860s.
