Wilgenrij 1842 - 1898

"Wilgenrij" is an etching by Dutch artist Johan Frederik Croockewit, created between 1842 and 1898. The artwork depicts a row of willow trees, likely in a rural setting, with a bird flying overhead. This small, detailed etching is characteristic of Croockewit's landscape work, which often captured the delicate beauty of nature in a minimalist style. This piece showcases the artist's skillful use of line and tonal variation to create a sense of depth and atmosphere. "Wilgenrij" offers a glimpse into the Dutch landscape and the artistic sensibilities of the 19th century.
