Twee figuren voor een boerderij bij Zwolle 1778 - 1838

Anthonie van den Bos’s “Twee figuren voor een boerderij bij Zwolle” is a delicate pencil drawing depicting a simple farmhouse in the Dutch countryside. Created sometime between 1778 and 1838, the piece showcases the artist’s keen eye for detail and his ability to capture the tranquility of rural life. Two figures stand before the thatched-roof farmhouse, adding a sense of scale and human presence to the scene. The drawing, currently held in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies the Dutch Romantic movement's fascination with the natural world and the simple beauty of everyday life.
