EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the serene beauty of Haarlem, a picturesque city in the Netherlands during the 17th century. Painted by Jacob Isaaksz. van Ruisdael, this oil on canvas artwork titled "View of Haarlem from the Northwest with the Bleaching Fields in the Foreground" showcases his exceptional talent for landscape painting.

The golden age ambiance is palpable as viewers are transported back in time to experience this idyllic Dutch landscape.
