R. Houlditch (L. 2214).
An unidentified monogram in pen and ink and dated 1783 on the reverse.

專家說明

In this small, compact landscape, Rembrandt skilfully blended the techniques of etching and drypoint to produce a balanced tonal study in which the viewer's eye is asked to pick out the annecdotal details; the flock of sheep in the mid ground, the horse rolling in the field, the group of figures standing on the dyck to the left. It is a testament to his skill as a landscape artist that such a broad panorama is evoked so effectively within such a small pictorial space.
