EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 18th century drawing by Jacques Kuyper captures the quintessential charm of the Dutch Low Countries with its depiction of The Milestone or Ban Pole at Halfweg. The meticulously detailed scale drawing, executed in ink and watercolor, transports us back in time to an era of horse-drawn carriages and weary travelers making their way through the Dutch countryside. The Milestone, or Ban Pole, stands proudly at Halfweg, marking the halfway point between Amsterdam and the North Sea. This stone distance marker, a common sight along Dutch thoroughfares during the 18th century, served as an essential navigation tool for travelers and merchants alike. Kuyper masterfully captures the intricate design of the milestone, with its ornate carvings and the inscription "Halfweg" etched into its surface. The drawing also offers a glimpse into the architectural and artistic sensibilities of the time, with the picturesque houses and buildings in the background. The use of color and contrast in the watercolor adds depth and dimension to the scene, further highlighting the attention to detail and skill of the artist. This beautiful work of art, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the Netherlands and the artistic prowess of Jacques Kuyper. The Milestone at Halfweg stands as a symbol of the past, inviting us to explore the history and beauty of the Dutch landscape.
