Het Hof te Alphen aan de Rijn 1737

"Het Hof te Alphen aan de Rijn" (1737) is a pen and ink drawing by Dutch artist Cornelis Pronk, depicting a stately manor house, likely a country estate, with a large garden and surrounding trees. This drawing, now part of the Rijksmuseum's collection, provides a glimpse into Dutch architecture and landscape during the 18th century. The precise and detailed lines of the drawing, typical of Pronk's style, capture the structure's architectural details, the lush foliage, and the overall grandeur of the estate. Pronk's "Het Hof te Alphen aan de Rijn" showcases his talent for capturing the essence of his subjects in a simple yet expressive manner.
