Josua de Grave's "Landscape with Figures and Camp Site" (1655-1712) is a delicate pen and wash drawing that captures a peaceful scene of a campsite. The drawing depicts a group of figures gathered near a tent encampment, with a landscape of trees and rolling hills behind them. This drawing is a great example of the Dutch Golden Age landscape tradition, with the artist's meticulous attention to detail and use of light and shadow to convey depth and atmosphere. De Grave, a Dutch artist known for his landscapes, captures the serene beauty of the outdoors in this work.
