Gezicht in schuur door openstaande deur 1782 - 1837

"Gezicht in schuur door openstaande deur" (View of a barn through an open door) is a drawing by Pieter Bartholomeusz. Barbiers, created between 1782 and 1837. The artwork, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a simple, yet detailed view into a barn, capturing the essence of daily life in the 19th century. The drawing showcases Barbiers' skilled hand in capturing the texture of wood and the subtle play of light and shadow. The open door reveals a glimpse of the barn's interior, with a wooden bucket and a bottle hanging on the wall. A pair of clogs lie on the ground, hinting at the presence of a person or activity within. This drawing, with its focus on everyday objects and settings, represents Barbiers' contribution to the genre of realism.
