Landschap met een boom bij een brug 1630 - 1632

"Landschap met een boom bij een brug," created between 1630 and 1632 by Jan van Goyen, is a delicate pencil drawing depicting a typical Dutch landscape. The scene features a small wooden bridge spanning a canal, with a solitary tree standing tall on the right bank. The artist’s meticulous attention to detail is evident in the subtle shading and the accurate depiction of the bridge’s wooden beams.
