Vrijend stel zit bij het water 1804

"Vrijend stel zit bij het water" (1804) by Cornelis Bogerts depicts a romantic couple seated in a small boat, likely on a Dutch canal. The engraving, a masterful example of 19th-century printmaking, uses delicate lines to capture the intimate scene. Set against a backdrop of trees and water, the couple's tenderness and the serene natural setting create a sense of idyllic love. The work showcases Bogerts's ability to evoke a sense of emotion and beauty through meticulous detail.
