Straatje in een vissersdorp 1876 - 1922

"Straatje in een vissersdorp" (Street in a fishing village) is a pencil drawing by Belgian artist Albert Baertsoen, created between 1876 and 1922. The artwork, now in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a narrow street in a fishing village, capturing the atmosphere of a typical coastal town. Baertsoen's masterful use of pencil creates a sense of depth and texture, highlighting the details of the buildings and the cobblestone street. The figure in the doorway adds a human element, providing a sense of scale and inviting the viewer to imagine the bustling life of this fishing village.
