Jan Hackaert

Artist, Dutch, probably 1628 - probably 1699

The image shows a rustic landscape with dense trees on the right side and a body of water stretching across the frame. The etching employs fine lines and cross-hatching to create depth and texture. The color palette is monochrome, with shades of sepia and black. Close to the viewer, a dirt path runs alongside the water, with two small figures walking on it. The land gently slopes towards the water with reflections on its surface.
