Gezicht op berglandschap met sneeuw toppen c. 1886 - 1896

"Gezicht op berglandschap met sneeuw toppen" (View of a mountain landscape with snow peaks) is a photograph taken by Dutch artist Henry Pauw van Wieldrecht between 1886 and 1896. The sepia-toned image depicts a misty mountain valley, with a solitary tree in the foreground and snow-capped peaks in the distance. Van Wieldrecht was known for his landscapes and mountain scenes, which often featured dramatic lighting and atmospheric effects. This photograph is a prime example of his style and demonstrates his appreciation for the natural world. The Rijksmuseum, where the photograph is currently located, offers a glimpse into the artist's travel and appreciation for the beauty of the mountains.
