Six's Bridge

Rembrandt van Rijn

National Gallery of Art

This print shows a landscape with a flat perspective, featuring a countryside scene with a low bridge. The horizon is low, emphasizing the blank sky above. In the distance, there are trees and some low buildings, including a church spire. On the right, a sailboat floats on a low body of water. In the center of the print, there is a detailed wooden bridge with two abstract people in hats standing by the railing, looking towards the boat on the right. The print has been done in thin black lines on off-white paper.
