"Landschap met een ezelrijder" (Landscape with a Donkey Rider) is an etching by Dutch artist Jan van Nickelen, created between 1665 and 1721. The artwork depicts a peaceful countryside scene with a rider on a donkey traversing a winding path through a wooded landscape. The composition features a variety of trees, a small bridge, a dog running alongside the rider, and a distant horizon with clouds. The etching's delicate lines and masterful shading evoke a sense of depth and tranquility, characteristic of van Nickelen's landscapes. This small-scale print, measuring only 156mm by 163mm, provides a glimpse into the artist's keen observation of nature.
