This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back to the picturesque Schellingwoude waterfront in 1619. The serene landscape of North Holland unfolds before our eyes, showcasing the timeless beauty of this region. In this particular scene, we are presented with a charming view of Schellingwoude from the waterfront, where houses gracefully line up behind a protective dike. At the dock, an open boat with its diligent crew catches our attention, hinting at a bustling maritime activity that once thrived in this area. The presence of dikes and levees further emphasizes the importance of water management in shaping life along these shores. The artist behind this masterpiece is Simon Fokke, an esteemed figure hailing from Amsterdam between 1722 and 1784. Through his skilled hand and keen eye for detail, Fokke captures not only the physical elements but also infuses his work with a sense of tranquility and harmony. Printed on paper using etching techniques, this artwork measures approximately 189mm in height by 255mm in width. It belongs to Fokke's renowned "North Holland Landscapes" series which showcases various scenes throughout the region. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, let us appreciate both its historical significance and artistic merit.
