Canal at Utrecht
Cornelis Ploos van Amstel (editor) and Bernhard Schreuder (printmaker), after Jacob Esselens
The image shows a river or canal with boats on the water and a line of trees on the far shore. The drawing is done in soft pencil strokes with a limited color palette of grey. A person is in a small boat in the foreground, while larger boats with figures are moored at the bank. The sky has clouds and birds.
