Artist, Dutch, 1621 - 1675

The image shows a rural scene from an elevated viewpoint. The landscape blends seamlessly between land and sky with lightly sketched clouds. A large tree with detailed foliage is in the top half of the image. A thatched house is to the left, with figures walking towards it. A covered wagon drawn by an ox moves to the right. The color palette is monochromatic, using shades of brown and black for a subtle visual impact through line work and shading.
