Salisbury from Wilton Park n.d.

"Salisbury from Wilton Park" is an etching by Scottish artist John Clerk of Eldin, known for his landscapes. This print, which is part of The Art Institute of Chicago's collection, depicts a distant view of Salisbury, England, with the spire of Salisbury Cathedral prominently featured. The foreground is dominated by trees, while the distant town, seen across a winding stream, is smaller in scale, creating a sense of depth. The etching's fine lines and subtle shading bring this scenic view to life, showcasing Clerk of Eldin's skillful rendering of both landscape and cityscape.
