Landschap met een lege hooiberg 1851

Jacobus Ludovicus Cornet’s 1851 etching, "Landschap met een lege hooiberg," depicts a simple rural scene in the Netherlands. The artwork showcases a thatched roof structure resting on tall poles, reminiscent of a hayloft. This structure is set against a backdrop of a village, with windmills in the distance, hinting at a Dutch landscape. The etching's fine lines and detailed depiction of the thatched roof, poles, and surrounding landscape, create a sense of realism and provide a glimpse into the daily life of the Netherlands in the 19th century.
