A River Landscape c. 1888

"A River Landscape" is a stipple drawing by French artist Albert Dubois-Pillet, created around 1888. The artwork depicts a serene landscape with a river winding through a village, as seen from a hillside. Pillet, known for his precise stippling technique, used a dense network of tiny dots to create a realistic and atmospheric representation of the scene. The oval format of the drawing further emphasizes the feeling of tranquility. Dubois-Pillet's work exemplifies the meticulous detail and atmospheric effects that were popular in 19th-century landscape art.
