Landschap met een ruiter bij een waterkant 1848 - 1888

"Landschap met een ruiter bij een waterkant" (Landscape with a rider by a waterside) is a pencil drawing by Dutch artist Anton Mauve, created between 1848 and 1888. The piece is a simple yet evocative sketch, capturing the essence of a rural scene with loose, expressive lines. The drawing's subject, a rider near a body of water, is barely discernible but suggests a moment of tranquility amidst the natural surroundings. This work is a testament to Mauve's masterful use of line and his ability to imbue even the most minimal of sketches with a sense of depth and emotion. This work is currently on display at the Rijksmuseum.
