De zonnewagen van Apollo 1625 - 1676

"De zonnewagen van Apollo" is a pen and ink drawing by Jacob van Campen, a prominent Dutch architect and designer, created between 1625 and 1676. The drawing, housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a dynamic scene of Apollo's sun chariot, drawn by horses and surrounded by figures. Van Campen's delicate lines and the composition's dynamism create a visually captivating study of the celestial body and its mythological association. This drawing, a fine example of Dutch Baroque art, showcases Van Campen's artistic talents and his interest in classical mythology and astronomy.
