Overhellende boom aan een waterkant 1876 - 1877

Willem Cornelis Rip's 1876 - 1877 pencil drawing, "Overhellende boom aan een waterkant," depicts a delicate landscape scene. The composition centers around a lone tree, its branches reaching towards the sky, while its trunk leans precariously over a tranquil body of water. Minimal details in the drawing evoke a sense of serenity and quietude, characteristic of Rip's artistic style. The artwork reflects the artist's keen observation of nature and his ability to capture its essence with a few simple lines.
