Weiland omgrensd door een hek 1848 - 1888

"Weiland omgrensd door een hek" (Pasture Enclosed by a Fence) is a charcoal drawing by Dutch artist Anton Mauve, created between 1848 and 1888. Mauve, known for his landscapes and figure studies, captured the essence of the Dutch countryside in this simple yet evocative sketch. The loose, gestural lines suggest a quick observation of a field enclosed by a fence, showcasing Mauve's characteristic ability to capture the essence of a scene with a few strokes. This drawing, housed in the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into Mauve's working process and his sensitivity to the natural world.
