Landschap met een molen c. 1881 - 1888

"Landschap met een molen" (Landscape with a Mill), a charcoal drawing by Anton Mauve, is a quick sketch depicting a windmill in the distance. Mauve, known for his landscapes and figure studies, produced this work between 1881 and 1888. The composition is characterized by the loose and gestural lines, suggesting the artist's interest in capturing the fleeting impressions of light and atmosphere. The drawing, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to Mauve's mastery of capturing the essence of a scene with minimal detail.
