Boerderij c. 1752 - 1819

Jurriaan Andriessen's "Boerderij" is a small, detailed watercolor sketch depicting a Dutch farmhouse nestled amongst trees. The artist was a Dutch painter, born in 1742 and died in 1819. This sketch, dating from the 18th century, shows the farmhouse's simple facade, with a large, open barn door, in the background, while a large tree dominates the left side of the composition. The artist's use of subtle gray tones creates a peaceful and intimate atmosphere, capturing the everyday life of the Dutch countryside.
