Sloot met twee boten 1870 - 1931

This etching, "Sloot met twee boten," created by Willem Bastiaan Tholen between 1870 and 1931, depicts a quiet scene of two boats nestled within a narrow canal, framed by lush greenery. Tholen's signature etching style is evident in the nuanced use of light and shadow, creating a sense of depth and tranquility. This small work is housed in the Rijksmuseum and is an excellent example of Tholen's mastery of depicting everyday Dutch landscapes.
