Brug 1842

"Brug" (Bridge) is a lithograph by Charles Rochussen, created in 1842. The artwork depicts a simple scene of a bridge over a small waterway. Two figures stand near the bridge, their presence adding a sense of scale and human interaction to the landscape. The artist's use of line and shading create a sense of depth and texture, emphasizing the rustic charm of the bridge and its surroundings. This work is an example of Rochussen's talent for capturing everyday moments in his Dutch landscapes. The artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a fine example of 19th century realism.
