Two Logs in the Water

Allart van Everdingen

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts a landscape with a high horizon, showing distant hills, trees, and a river in the foreground. The etching technique is used to create textures, with rocky cliffs and foliage detailed. A log and ducks are seen on the river, leading to rugged terrain with trees. A log bridge with a figure crossing it is central, and a small house is visible in the distance among the trees. The scene is monochromatic.
