Landschap met ronde toren 1761 - 1784

"Landschap met ronde toren" (Landscape with Round Tower) is a graphite drawing by Johannes Janson, a Dutch artist, created between 1761 and 1784. The drawing, housed at the Rijksmuseum, depicts a simple yet evocative scene of a round tower partially obscured by foliage, set against a vast, open sky. The minimal detail and delicate lines characteristic of Janson's style emphasize the tower's presence and the expansive nature of the surrounding landscape. The drawing's small size (46 x 53 mm) suggests it might be a preparatory sketch for a larger work or a personal study.
