"Landschap met tekenaar aan het water, op de rug gezien" (Landscape with draftsman by the water, seen from behind) is an etching by Dutch symbolist artist Jan Toorop created in 1895. The etching portrays a solitary figure, likely the artist himself, sitting on a bank by a body of water, his back turned to the viewer, lost in the contemplation of the landscape. The piece is characterized by its dark, moody tones and sparse details, which evoke a sense of introspection and solitude. This etching, now in the Rijksmuseum, is a fine example of Toorop's signature style, which often depicted themes of isolation and the human condition.
