Landscape with meadows, water and farm, print, printmaker: Maurits van der Valk (signed by artist), 1867 - 1914, paper, etching, intaglio printmaking technique, etching with plate tone, proof print, height 96 mm x width 196 mm, meadow, pasture, polder, reclaimed land, farm or solitary house in landscape, A sepia-toned landscape drawing shows a rural scene with a cluster of thatched and tiled roof cottages partially obscured by tall, leafy trees, with detailed branches and foliage rendered above the buildings. In the foreground a field with textured grass occupies most of the view, with a grazing horse near the center and a rounded haystack and a small bundled object to the left. A narrow ditch or stream runs across the right foreground toward a wooden fence that curves along the bank. Low shrubbery and hedges separate the cottages from the field, and a distant low horizon with faint architectural outlines is visible beneath a sky filled with layered, rounded cloud formations.
