This detailed pen drawing by Constantijn Huygens depicts the Waal river and the Zuilichem castle in the Netherlands. Created sometime between 1671-1678, this work showcases Huygens' keen eye for landscape detail, with a focus on the natural beauty of the Dutch countryside. The composition features a winding path leading the viewer's eye to the river, where several boats with sails are seen navigating the waters. This piece demonstrates Huygens' skill as a draftsman and his interest in capturing the essence of Dutch landscapes during the Golden Age.
