Riviergezicht met molen 1873 - 1886

"Riviergezicht met molen" (River View with Mill) is an etching by Dutch artist Wilhelmus Johannes Steenhoff, created between 1873 and 1886. The artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a windmill silhouetted against a hazy sky, with a river and grassy foreground. The use of black and white creates a dramatic and evocative scene, capturing the tranquility of the landscape. Steenhoff's meticulous etching style, characterized by fine lines and subtle shading, further emphasizes the details of the windmill and surrounding environment.
