Goltzius's primary importance for the history of landscape lies in a small group of drawings dated to the early years of the seventeenth century, which are amongst the earliest depictions of the countryside around Haarlem. While Goltzius's woodcuts were not as influential as his drawings, they are still indicative of the predilection, particularly among Haarlem artists, for more realistic views of contemporary local landscapes rather than the fantastic Flemish vistas that had been in vogue up to this time.
Landscape with Farmhouse is part of a series of four chiaroscuro woodcuts depicting various landscapes. While other woodcuts in this series depict Arcadian or Italianate landscapes, this image is the most "Dutch" in composition and anticipates future developments in the genre. Though the fluid, curvilinear strokes are reminiscent of prints and drawings by the sixteenth-century Venetian artist Domenico Campagnola, the rusticity of the scene and the naturalism of individual motifs such as the excreting dog are typically Dutch. The stork, for instance, appears often in Dutch prints and was considered a sign of good luck in seventeenth-century Holland.
