Eye candy for Today: Jan de Beijer ink and wash drawing [feedly]

Eye candy for Today: Jan de Beijer ink and wash drawing
// lines and colors

Grebbesluis, Jan de Beijer , pen and wash
Grebbesluis, Jan de Beijer

Ink and wash, roughly 4 1/2 x 12 (120x30cm). In the Rijksmuseum.

With clear observation, economical delineation and a few simple tones, 18th century draftsmana nd painter Jan de Beijer gives us an evocative semi-panoramic scene. It looks to me like the right side of the drawing may have been cut off, perhaps the scene was even wider.
