Around 1640 Rembrandt turned increasingly to images with a more local, Dutch flavour, and he increasingly produced drawings and etchings rather than paintings of such scenes. Examples include the painted Landscape with a Stone Bridge, the etched Windmill (1641), and several etched Cottages (1641/42).
