Kasteel Keenenburg c. 1728 - 1732

This detailed drawing of Kasteel Keenenburg was created by Dutch artist Cornelis Pronk between 1728 and 1732. The drawing depicts the front and side of the castle, with its gatehouse, gardens, and surrounding buildings. Pronk was known for his architectural drawings, and this piece is a testament to his skill in capturing the intricate details of structures. The delicate lines and careful shading give a sense of depth and realism to the castle, making it appear almost three-dimensional. It's housed at the Rijksmuseum, a prominent collection of Dutch art and history, allowing art lovers to appreciate Pronk's work and gain a glimpse into the architecture of the Netherlands during the 18th century.
