Winterlandschap met twee figuren op het ijs 1847 - 1865

"Winterlandschap met twee figuren op het ijs" (Winter Landscape with Two Figures on the Ice) is a lithograph created between 1847 and 1865 by Andreas Schelfhout, a renowned Dutch painter known for his romantic landscapes. The artwork, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a serene winter scene featuring two figures walking on a frozen canal, surrounded by bare trees and a frosty landscape. The detailed portrayal of light and shadow, and the subtle texture of the snow and ice, highlight Schelfhout's masterful ability to capture the essence of the Dutch winter.
