Johann Caspar Huber's "Mountainous Landscape with Ruins of a Castle and Three Men in a Cave, Seen through a Stone Gate" (1752 - 1827) is a detailed black and white drawing of a mountainous landscape. The viewer looks through a large rock formation into a valley, where a castle in ruins stands at the top of a hill. Three figures stand in a cave at the bottom of the composition. This work, currently held by the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is an example of Huber's skill at depicting the dramatic and picturesque nature of the landscape.
