Aangelegde terassen en bergwegen tegen een stijle berghelling nabij Menton c. 1886 - 1896

This black and white photograph, "Aangelegde terassen en bergwegen tegen een stijle berghelling nabij Menton," by Dutch photographer Henry Pauw van Wieldrecht, is a stunning example of landscape photography from the late 19th century. The photograph depicts a view of the French Riviera, with the terraced hillsides and winding mountain roads leading up to the town of Menton in the distance. The detailed composition and sharp focus of the image demonstrate Wieldrecht's mastery of the photographic process and his keen eye for capturing the beauty of the natural world. This work is part of the Rijksmuseum collection.
