Herfst 1662 - 1683

"Herfst," a 1662 - 1683 etching by Dutch artist Jan van Almeloveen, depicts a landscape with a castle and figures, confined by a diamond-shaped frame. The scene is dominated by a large castle, partially hidden by a rocky outcrop and foliage, with a prominent tower and spire reaching toward the sky. The figures, three in total, are positioned in the lower foreground, adding a sense of scale and human interaction to the vast landscape. The etching exhibits a detailed rendering of the mountainous terrain and architectural features, demonstrating Van Almeloveen's mastery of the medium and his artistic talent. The artwork is part of the Rijksmuseum collection in Amsterdam.
