1701
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
The River IJ and Seascapes is a 1701 by Ludolf Bakhuizen, a Baroque work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This is a simple, elegant print with black ink on light paper. The words are written in a flowing, decorative style, with swirls and loops connecting letters. The text looks like a poem or quote, centered neatly on the page. At the bottom, smaller print mentions a date and a place name. The phrase is in Dutch, and the name *Ludolf Backhuysen* stands out as the artist. The year 1701 is also visible, marking when this was made. If you like this style of writing, look up Baroque.
Ludolf Bakhuizen (28 December 1630 or 1632 – 7 November 1708) was a German-born Dutch painter, draughtsman, calligrapher and printmaker.
