Reizigers met vee op een brug in de bergen 1663

Adam Pijnacker's 1663 drawing, "Reizigers met vee op een brug in de bergen," depicts a picturesque mountain landscape. The scene unfolds on a bridge crossing a rushing stream, with travelers and their livestock crossing the narrow passage. The drawing captures a tranquil moment in the midst of a mountainous journey, showcasing Pijnacker's keen eye for detail and his mastery of the Italianate landscape style popular in the 17th century. The artwork, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into the Dutch fascination with natural beauty and the lives of those who traveled through it.
