"Twee boerenwoningen" is a lithograph created by Johannes Cornelis van Pappelendam sometime between 1825 and 1845. This piece, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts two Dutch farmhouses, one with a thatched roof, and the other with a more traditional tiled roof. The lithograph captures the rustic charm of Dutch rural life, with the presence of a cart and farm animals adding to the sense of authenticity. The work exemplifies van Pappelendam's talent for capturing the everyday beauty of his surroundings, using meticulous detail to create a realistic depiction of Dutch countryside life.
