"Rivierlandschap met een ruïne op een eiland" (River Landscape with a Ruin on an Island) is an etching by Jeanne Deny, created in 1770. It depicts a river landscape with a ruined building on a small island. The scene is dominated by a large, ruined structure, possibly a church or castle, set against a backdrop of rolling hills and a cloudy sky. Two figures in a boat can be seen in the foreground, adding a sense of scale and human presence to the scene. This etching is a fine example of the 18th-century Dutch landscape tradition, characterized by its detailed rendering of nature and its focus on the picturesque beauty of the countryside. The artwork is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
