Gezicht op Arnhem, grazend vee in een weiland en een vrouw met een kap 1874 - 1878

This pencil sketch by Willem Cornelis Rip, titled "Gezicht op Arnhem, grazend vee in een weiland en een vrouw met een kap," depicts a pastoral scene. The distant landscape features the city of Arnhem with its church spires, while the foreground shows a field with grazing cows and a woman wearing a hood. Executed in a light and delicate style, the work captures a peaceful and contemplative atmosphere. The artist's use of subtle shading and linework suggests the gentle movement of the wind and the soft contours of the rolling hills. This artwork is a fine example of the artist's skill in landscape drawing, created during a period when his work was deeply influenced by the natural world.
