Sull’opera
The tower in this print has been identified as the square belfry of the church in Ransdorp: unsurprisingly, for this village northwest of Amsterdam was (and is) easy to recognize by its tower. However, Rembrandt did not depict a specific place here. The hilly landscape in which he set the building alone does not reflect the flat polder in which this village is located. He often included imaginary elements in his landscapes.
