Boerderij met rieten dak en hooischuur 1852 - 1918

"Boerderij met rieten dak en hooischuur" is an etching created between 1852 and 1918 by Pieter Johannes Niesten (1842-1918). The detailed etching depicts a rural scene with a farmhouse, hay barn, and a few trees. The artist skillfully renders the textures of the thatched roofs, the rough brick walls, and the foliage, creating a sense of realism. The etching's small size, measuring 125 mm in height and 168 mm in width, lends an intimate perspective to the subject matter. Niesten's attention to detail and his choice of subject matter were characteristic of his work, which often focused on the Dutch countryside and its inhabitants.
