Fontein in landschap 1770

"Fontein in landschap" (Fountain in a Landscape) is a delicate pen and ink drawing by Jeanne Deny, a Dutch artist known for her botanical illustrations. Created in 1770, this artwork depicts a whimsical fountain nestled within a landscape. The central fountain is adorned with a large, umbrella-like structure, from which water cascades. The surrounding greenery, likely a depiction of a garden setting, is rendered with fine detail. The drawing, housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to Deny’s talent for capturing the beauty of nature, showcasing the artist's expertise in both botanical accuracy and graceful composition.
