Gezicht op Langerak c. 1728 - 1732

This simple yet evocative pencil drawing by Cornelis Pronk, titled *Gezicht op Langerak*, depicts a view of the Dutch village of Langerak. Created between 1728 and 1732, the work showcases Pronk's skill in capturing the essence of a rural landscape. The drawing features a winding path leading the viewer's eye towards the village, dominated by the towering spires of a church. The minimalist detail highlights Pronk's keen eye for observation and his ability to convey a sense of place through subtle lines and textures. Now housed in the Rijksmuseum, the drawing stands as a testament to Pronk's talent for rendering the quiet beauty of Dutch landscapes.
