Landschap met paard en wagen 1612 - 1652

"Landschap met paard en wagen" (Landscape with a horse and wagon) is an anonymous etching dating from between 1612 and 1652, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum. The artwork depicts a bucolic scene with a horse-drawn wagon crossing a river, and a small village nestled in the hills in the distance. The etching's details, like the cross in the foreground, suggest a biblical reference, further adding to its historical and cultural significance. The detailed depiction of the landscape and the figures reflects the artistic style of the Dutch Golden Age, a period known for its emphasis on realism and meticulous detail.
