The Little Bridge

Jacob van Ruisdael

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Little Bridge by Jacob van Ruisdael: A black and white etching of a rural scene. A two-story half-timbered house with a steeply pitched roof and multiple windows stands on the left. The house appears old and weathered. A dirt path leads to the house's doorway. Trees and bushes surround the house. A small wooden bridge spans a stream or river on the right. A figure stands on the bridge. The sky is cloudy with some birds flying overhead.
