Large House with a Turret

Allart van Everdingen

National Gallery of Art

This print shows a landscape scene with a building and a small tower in the center. There are rocky mountains in the distance below a cloudy sky. The building stands on a hill surrounded by tall trees. Nearer to us, in the bottom right corner, two people are in the grass under a tall tree, one laying on the ground and the other standing. They are drawn with simple outlines. A blank space on the far left might indicate a body of water behind the trees. The background of the print is beige paper.
