Landschap met een kleine waterstroom, 1900 - 1935

Here is a landscape, a small scene with a stream, made by Neville Keasberry. It is monochrome. I can imagine Keasberry setting up his camera to take the shot. Did he know what he was looking for or did he find the scene as he walked? There's something very quiet about the scene, something very still and timeless. I can feel the humidity in the air. I wonder if he spent a lot of time outdoors. I'd like to think that Keasberry was inspired by other artists before him, or that he would go on to inspire others. After all, artists are always speaking to each other across time and space. Each adding their voice to an ongoing conversation. Every picture is like the feeling of discovering something, a way of making sense of the world, of trying to find a connection to our surroundings.
