Landschap met houten brug 1725 - 1775

"Landschap met houten brug" is an etching by Johann Georg Hertel dating between 1725 and 1775. The artwork depicts a landscape scene with a wooden bridge spanning a body of water. The bridge is supported by stone pillars, and it connects a rocky outcropping on one side to a partially ruined structure on the other. The composition is balanced and symmetrical, with a small figure on the bridge adding a sense of scale and perspective. This piece exemplifies Hertel’s skill as a landscape artist, demonstrating his meticulous detail in portraying natural elements. The artwork is part of the Rijksmuseum collection.
