Rivierlandschap met een boom, een berglandschap en mannenkoppen, een molen en dieren c. 1826 - 1888

This is a collection of three sketches by Johannes Antonius Canta, a Dutch artist known for his landscapes and seascapes. The top sketch features a group of heads and bodies with some animals included. The second depicts a landscape with a river, trees, and a mountain in the distance. The bottom sketch focuses on the branches of a tree, a recurring theme in Canta's work. These sketches are likely studies for larger works. The artist's use of loose strokes and washes creates a sense of movement and energy. The delicate detail of the leaves and branches are characteristic of his style. Canta's works are often appreciated for their romanticism and their depiction of natural beauty.
