"Overtocht over een rivier" (Crossing a river) is a lithograph by the Gebroeders van Lier, a Dutch duo of artists active in the 19th century. The artwork depicts a group of people and animals crossing a shallow river, likely in a rural setting. The detailed depiction of the figures and animals, along with the structure on the right side of the composition, and the inclusion of the sky and landscape creates a sense of realism and offers viewers a glimpse into 19th-century Dutch life. The lithograph is currently housed at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
