Dijk tussen Maren en Alem, 1855 1855

"Dijk tussen Maren en Alem, 1855" is a black and white lithograph created by Pierre Louis Dubourcq in 1855. The artwork depicts a scene of devastation with a house destroyed by a fallen tree, likely as a result of a storm. The detail of the broken branches and the roof of the house leaning at an alarming angle adds to the sense of chaos and destruction. The composition is dominated by the fallen tree, which creates a diagonal line that leads the viewer's eye across the scene. Dubourcq's work often depicted scenes of natural disaster, and this print is a testament to his ability to capture the power and destructive nature of nature.
