Berglandschap met rivier 1881

"Berglandschap met rivier," a 1881 etching by Henri Toussaint (1849-1911), is a small landscape scene depicting a river winding through a mountainous valley. The artwork, measuring 116 mm in height and 169 mm in width, features soft, hazy lines and a light, delicate touch, typical of etching, creating a sense of tranquility and subtle beauty. Toussaint, known for his landscapes and historical scenes, uses the medium to capture the natural beauty of the region, likely in the vicinity of Clifton, England, as indicated by the inscription on the artwork. This etching serves as a testament to the artist's ability to translate the essence of the natural world through the art of printmaking.
