"Pakezels op een weg" (Pack Animals on a Road) is an etching by Dutch artist Pieter Nolpe, dating back to 1623-1653. The artwork depicts a winding road through a mountainous landscape, with a group of pack animals and their handlers making their way along the path. The scene is rendered in a realistic style, with meticulous attention to detail in the depiction of the animals, the landscape, and the figures. The artwork is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, and is a fine example of Nolpe’s mastery of etching techniques.
