Landschap met een boer en zijn ezel 1580 - 1600

"Landschap met een boer en zijn ezel" (Landscape with a Farmer and his Donkey) is an etching by Flemish artist Johann Sadeler I. Created between 1580 and 1600, the print depicts a picturesque landscape with a farmer leading his donkey across a bridge in the foreground. In the background, a small city nestled in the valley is overlooked by rolling hills and a distant mountain range. The scene is rendered with meticulous detail, showcasing Sadeler's masterful use of light and shadow to create depth and realism, a hallmark of his artistic style. The work is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
