The composition focuses on the interplay between the vertical forms of the trunks and the textured foliage above. Van Brussel employs a precise etching technique, using varied line weights to suggest the rough bark of the trees and the dappled light filtering through the canopy. The background remains relatively open, allowing the viewer to perceive the depth of the field beyond the immediate tree line.\n\nVan Brussel, active in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, worked within the established Dutch tradition of printmaking. His approach to the subject matter reflects a close observation of the natural world, prioritising clarity and structural accuracy. The figures included in the lower left provide a sense of scale, grounding the scene in a human context without distracting from the primary focus on the arboreal elements. The print demonstrates a mastery of tonal variation, achieved through the density of cross-hatching and line work, which creates a sense of atmosphere despite the monochromatic medium.\n\nThis work is characteristic of the period's interest in rural topography and the study of trees as individual subjects. The print is presented on a clean, neutral background, preserving the integrity of the original plate mark. It offers a view into the technical skill of a Dutch artist who balanced classical composition with a direct, observational style. The work is suitable for those interested in the history of printmaking or the aesthetic of early nineteenth-century European rural life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/portrait-of-charles-i-of-england-anthony-van-dyck\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003ePortrait of Charles I of England - Anthony van Dyck — Anthony van Dyck\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/prag-hans-thoma\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003ePräg - Hans Thoma — Hans Thoma\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hermanus van Brussel","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58180749361487,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58180914413903,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58180914446671,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58180914479439,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58180914512207,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58180914544975,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58180914577743,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58180914610511,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58180914643279,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58180914676047,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58180914708815,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58180914741583,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Plate-V-Tree-Lined-Path-_Poster_CompositorV1_1783586707222.jpg?v=1783632322"},{"product_id":"plate-vi-wooded-scene-with-figures-hermanus-van-brussel-1","title":"Plate VI (Wooded Scene with Figures) - Hermanus van Brussel","description":"\u003cp\u003eA detailed etching by Dutch artist Hermanus van Brussel, depicting a serene wooded scene with figures, rendered with precise line work and balanced composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThis etching by Hermanus van Brussel demonstrates the technical precision characteristic of late eighteenth-century Dutch printmaking. Van Brussel, primarily known as a painter and etcher, focused his attention on the natural world, often depicting rural environments with a disciplined approach to line and shadow. In this composition, the artist employs varied hatching techniques to define the texture of tree bark and the density of the foliage. The verticality of the trees creates a rhythmic structure, drawing the eye upwards while maintaining a clear sense of spatial depth. A small figure rests near the base of the trees, providing a sense of scale and human presence within the quiet, wooded setting. The work reflects the period's interest in observational drawing, where the artist prioritises the accurate rendering of light and form over dramatic artifice. The plate mark remains visible, indicating the traditional printing process used to transfer the image from the copper plate to the paper. The composition is balanced, with the heavy mass of the trees offset by the open foreground. This print offers a glimpse into the graphic output of an artist who was well-regarded in his time for his ability to capture the nuances of the Dutch countryside. The paper retains its original character, showing the subtle ageing typical of works from this era. It is a fine example of the etching medium, where the artist's hand is evident in every stroke, from the fine, delicate lines of the distant branches to the bolder, more decisive marks that ground the trees in the earth.

The work reflects the long-standing Dutch interest in rural life and the quiet observation of the natural world. It avoids unnecessary ornamentation, focusing instead on the atmospheric quality of the scene and the balance between architectural forms and organic growth.

The etching captures a dilapidated hut, partially obscured by the dense foliage of surrounding trees. The composition relies on the contrast between the structural lines of the timber frame and the organic, chaotic forms of the woodland setting.\n\nVan Brussel employs a variety of etching techniques to define the textures within the scene. The heavy, dark lines of the foreground trees provide a frame for the hut, drawing the eye toward the centre of the image.

The composition relies on the contrast between the dark, textured foliage of the foreground trees and the lighter, more open space surrounding the dwelling. Van Brussel employs a variety of hatching techniques to define the bark of the trees and the thatched roof of the cottage, creating a sense of depth through line weight rather than tonal wash.\n\nAs a Dutch artist active during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, van Brussel worked within a tradition that valued the observation of the natural world. His approach to printmaking often involved a disciplined application of the needle, allowing the copper plate to capture fine details in the branches and the surrounding vegetation. The scene possesses a quiet, observational quality, typical of the period's interest in rural life and the picturesque qualities of the Dutch countryside. The framing of the farmhouse by the overhanging branches directs the viewer's eye toward the centre of the composition, where the structure sits in a state of calm isolation.\n\nThis print demonstrates the technical proficiency required for etching, where the artist must anticipate the final result through the layering of lines. The absence of heavy shading in the sky allows the focus to remain on the interplay between the organic forms of the trees and the geometric simplicity of the farmhouse. It is a representative example of the graphic work produced by van Brussel, who was also known for his skills as a painter and decorator.

The composition features a couple resting beneath the boughs of a large, gnarled tree, which dominates the left side of the frame. The artist employs a delicate line quality to define the textures of the bark and the foliage, creating a sense of naturalistic depth. The background recedes into a soft, open space, punctuated by smaller trees and distant figures, suggesting a wider pastoral environment.\n\nVan Brussel, a Dutch artist active during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, demonstrates a clear command of the etching medium. His approach to light and shadow is restrained, relying on cross-hatching and varied line weight to build form rather than heavy tonal blocks. The sky is rendered with rhythmic, horizontal strokes that provide a sense of atmosphere without distracting from the primary subjects. This work reflects the period's interest in the picturesque, where human figures are integrated into the natural world to evoke a sense of calm and timelessness.\n\nThe print is an example of the graphic output common among Dutch artists of the era, who often looked to the traditions of seventeenth-century masters while adopting the cleaner, more structured aesthetic of the Neoclassical period. The focus remains on the interplay between the organic shapes of the trees and the human presence, balanced by the open expanse of the sky. This piece offers a glimpse into the technical skill of van Brussel, whose work remains a quiet contribution to the history of Dutch printmaking.

The work reflects the Dutch tradition of topographical and rural subjects, which remained popular long after the Golden Age. Van Brussel demonstrates a technical proficiency in the use of line to define both the architectural elements of the farmhouse and the organic textures of the surrounding foliage.\n\nThe composition is balanced, with the farmhouse serving as the central subject. The artist employs varying densities of etched lines to create shadow and depth, particularly in the dense canopy of the tree on the right and the darker recesses of the building. The sky is rendered with lighter, horizontal strokes, providing a sense of atmosphere that contrasts with the more detailed foreground. The inclusion of a small chimney emitting smoke adds a subtle narrative element, suggesting human presence within the quiet, rural setting.\n\nVan Brussel was known for his work as a decorator and painter of wall hangings, and his skill in creating convincing spatial arrangements is evident here. The etching captures the specific character of the Dutch countryside, with its characteristic waterways and modest farm buildings. The print is a fine example of the graphic arts in the Netherlands during this period, showing a clear focus on observational detail and traditional printmaking techniques. This museum-grade reproduction preserves the fine line work and tonal variations of the original plate, offering a clear view of the artist's hand and his approach to capturing light and texture in a monochrome medium.

The composition centres on a small cluster of cottages, partially obscured by trees, situated on a gentle rise. A horse-drawn carriage, or reiskoets, is positioned near the dwellings, suggesting a moment of pause or transit for the travellers. The artist employs fine, precise lines to define the architecture and the foliage, while the open sky occupies a significant portion of the frame, creating a sense of expansive atmosphere.\n\nVan Brussel was active during a period when Dutch artists continued to explore the possibilities of the etched line, often looking back to the masters of the seventeenth century for technical inspiration. His approach here is restrained, focusing on the interplay between the solid forms of the buildings and the lighter, more delicate treatment of the surrounding terrain. The etching demonstrates a clear understanding of tonal balance, using varying densities of cross-hatching to suggest shadow and depth without overwhelming the composition. The distant horizon, marked by a faint silhouette, provides a sense of scale and distance, grounding the scene in a specific, albeit humble, geography.\n\nAs a printmaker, Van Brussel maintained a focus on clarity and structural integrity.

Van Brussel, known for his skill in both painting and printmaking, demonstrates a precise control of the etching needle here. The composition is dominated by a cluster of tall, slender trees that occupy the right side of the frame, their trunks rendered with vertical hatching that suggests texture and age. The foliage is managed through varied line weights, creating a sense of density that contrasts with the more open, lighter treatment of the sky.\n\nIn the lower foreground, two figures stand near a wooden fence, providing a sense of scale to the towering trees. To the left, a small cart and horse are visible, suggesting the daily rhythms of rural life. The artist employs a range of cross-hatching and stippling techniques to define the shadows cast upon the ground, grounding the scene in a specific moment of daylight. The work reflects the late eighteenth-century Dutch interest in naturalistic observation, where the artist seeks to document the character of the countryside with clarity and technical discipline.\n\nVan Brussel’s approach to the medium is characteristic of the period, favouring clean lines and a balanced distribution of light and dark areas. The print avoids excessive ornamentation, allowing the structural forms of the trees and the subtle interaction between the figures and their environment to take precedence. This piece offers a view into the traditional Dutch printmaking tradition, where the mastery of line serves to translate the nuances of nature onto the printed page.

Van Brussel, active during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, was known for his technical proficiency in printmaking, often focusing on the natural world with a disciplined, observational approach.\n\nThe composition is dominated by a cluster of tall, slender trees that stretch towards the upper edge of the frame. Their trunks are rendered with fine, rhythmic hatching that suggests texture and age, while the foliage is depicted through a dense network of delicate lines. At the base of these trees, a simple wooden fence separates the foreground from the deeper recesses of the woodland. A small figure sits resting on the ground, providing a sense of scale and human presence within the expansive, quiet environment.\n\nVan Brussel employs a traditional etching technique to create varying degrees of shadow and light. The contrast between the bright, open foreground and the darker, more enclosed areas beneath the canopy demonstrates his control over the medium. The work avoids unnecessary ornamentation, favouring a clear, balanced arrangement that draws the eye upward along the vertical lines of the timber. This print reflects the period's interest in the observation of nature, presented with a clarity that is characteristic of Dutch printmaking traditions of the era.

The composition is anchored by a large, gnarled tree on the left, its foliage rendered with fine, dense hatching that suggests the weight and texture of the leaves. A sandy bank slopes down towards a body of water, creating a natural divide between the foreground and the distant, flatter terrain. On the right, a thinner, more skeletal tree provides a vertical counterpoint, framing the view and drawing the eye toward the horizon.\n\nVan Brussel employs a range of line weights to define the forms. The foreground is marked by vigorous, short strokes that describe the rough texture of the earth and low-lying vegetation. In contrast, the sky is treated with lighter, more open lines, allowing the paper to suggest the luminosity of the atmosphere. The artist demonstrates a clear interest in the play of light and shadow, using cross-hatching to deepen the recesses of the foliage and the shaded side of the central hillock.\n\nAs a painter and etcher, Van Brussel was well-versed in the conventions of his time. His work often reflects the influence of earlier Dutch masters who prioritised the observation of nature. This print avoids excessive ornamentation, focusing instead on the structural integrity of the trees and the spatial recession of the water. The result is a balanced, observational study that conveys a sense of stillness. The inclusion of a small, indistinct figure near the water adds a human element to the scene, providing a sense of scale without distracting from the natural environment.

This etching, titled Zwaar geboomte aan een plas, demonstrates his technical proficiency in the medium of printmaking. The composition focuses on a cluster of mature, heavy trees positioned near a body of water, a subject that reflects the Dutch tradition of rural observation.\n\nVan Brussel employs a variety of line weights to define the textures of the foliage and the rough bark of the trunks. The etching process allows for a high degree of control over light and shadow, which the artist uses to create a sense of depth across the scene. The sky is rendered with horizontal hatching, providing a contrast to the more chaotic, organic lines of the tree canopy. Small figures are visible near the base of the trees, providing a sense of scale to the natural environment. The work avoids excessive ornamentation, favouring a direct representation of the Dutch countryside.\n\nAs an artist, Van Brussel was known for his ability to capture the specific character of trees and the atmospheric conditions of the lowlands. His approach to etching is methodical, with clear distinctions between the foreground elements and the distant horizon. This print is representative of the period's interest in naturalistic observation, where the artist acts as a recorder of the physical world. The balance between the dark, dense foliage and the lighter, open areas of the water and sky creates a stable visual rhythm. This piece offers a view into the technical standards of Dutch printmaking during the transition between the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, showing a disciplined application of the etching needle to convey both form and light.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hermanus van Brussel","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58181632491855,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58182120472911,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58182120505679,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58182120538447,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58182120571215,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58182120603983,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58182120636751,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58182120669519,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58182120702287,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58182120735055,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58182120767823,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58182120800591,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Zwaar-geboomte-aan-een-plas_Poster_CompositorV1_1783608104396.jpg?v=1783636831"},{"product_id":"river-in-a-wooded-landscape-hermanus-van-brussel","title":"River in a Wooded Landscape - Hermanus van Brussel","description":"\u003cp\u003eA detailed etching by Hermanus van Brussel depicting a tranquil river scene with a cottage and mature trees.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThis etching by Hermanus van Brussel captures a quiet, rural scene typical of the Dutch tradition. The composition centres on a large, mature tree that dominates the foreground, its branches rendered with fine, precise lines that suggest the texture of bark and the density of foliage. To the left, a small cottage with a thatched roof sits near the water, providing a sense of human scale to the natural environment. A small boat rests at the water's edge, reinforcing the tranquil atmosphere of the riverbank.\n\nVan Brussel employs a variety of hatching techniques to build tone and depth. The water is depicted with horizontal strokes that contrast with the more chaotic, organic lines used for the trees and the grassy bank. The sky remains largely open, allowing the viewer to focus on the interplay between the light and the shadows cast by the dense canopy. The artist demonstrates a clear command of the etching needle, using varying pressure to create a range of greys that define the spatial relationships between the foreground elements and the distant, softer trees on the right.\n\nAs a painter, draughtsman, and etcher, Van Brussel was well-versed in the conventions of his time. His work often reflects the interest in naturalistic observation that defined Dutch art of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. This print offers a glimpse into the rural life of the period, presenting a scene that is both composed and observational. The lack of dramatic action or narrative allows the viewer to appreciate the technical skill involved in the printmaking process, from the initial drawing to the final impression on paper. It is a quiet study of light, form, and the textures of the natural world.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hermanus van Brussel","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58182198624591,"sku":null,"price":37.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58182365020495,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58182365053263,"sku":null,"price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58182365086031,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58182365118799,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58182365151567,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58182365184335,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58182365217103,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58182365249871,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58182365282639,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58182365315407,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58182365348175,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/River-in-a-Wooded-Landscape_Poster_CompositorV1_1783607301304.jpg?v=1783638710"},{"product_id":"landschap-met-rustende-wandelaars-hermanus-van-brussel","title":"Landschap met rustende wandelaars - Hermanus van Brussel","description":"\u003cp\u003eA delicate etching by Hermanus van Brussel depicting a quiet rural scene with a figure resting near a cottage and a large tree.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThis etching by Hermanus van Brussel captures a quiet, rural moment in the Dutch countryside. The composition centres on a large, mature tree that provides shade for a small cottage tucked behind a wooden fence. In the foreground, a solitary figure rests, leaning on a walking stick, which adds a sense of scale and human presence to the scene. The artist employs a delicate etching technique, using varied line weights to define the texture of the foliage, the rough bark of the tree, and the soft contours of the grassy bank.\n\nVan Brussel was a versatile artist, known for his work as a painter, draughtsman, and etcher. His approach to printmaking reflects the traditions of the Dutch school, where the observation of nature and rural life remained a primary subject. The etching demonstrates a clear understanding of light and shadow, with the cross-hatching in the tree canopy creating depth and volume against the lighter, more sparsely worked sky. The fence serves as a compositional device, leading the eye from the foreground figure towards the cottage, creating a sense of distance and atmosphere.\n\nThis print is characteristic of the period, where artists often produced small-scale works that focused on the quietude of the countryside. The lack of dramatic action or narrative complexity allows the viewer to focus on the technical skill of the etcher and the peaceful nature of the subject. The work is a fine example of late eighteenth-century Dutch graphic art, maintaining a balance between observation and artistic interpretation. It offers a glimpse into the rural life of the era, presented with a refined and understated aesthetic that remains accessible to contemporary viewers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hermanus van Brussel","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58182255706447,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58182395658575,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58182395691343,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58182395724111,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58182395756879,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58182395789647,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58182395822415,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58182395855183,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58182395887951,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58182395920719,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58182395953487,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58182395986255,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Landschap-met-rustende-wandelaars_Poster_CompositorV1_1783607496789.jpg?v=1783638893"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/collections\/hermanus-van-brussel.oembed","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
