Gezicht op het Meer van Luzern in een storm 1889 - 1902

"Gezicht op het Meer van Luzern in een storm" (View of Lake Lucerne in a Storm) is an etching by Dutch artist Carel Nicolaas Storm van 's-Gravesande, created between 1889 and 1902. This small-scale artwork, measuring 138mm by 190mm, is a striking depiction of a stormy landscape. The artist uses fine, parallel lines to represent the choppy water and swirling clouds, creating a sense of movement and turbulence. The dark mountain range in the background contrasts dramatically with the light sky, highlighting the intensity of the storm. This etching, now in the Rijksmuseum, captures the beauty and power of nature, showcasing van 's-Gravesande's mastery of the etching technique.
