Avond 1765 - 1767

"Avond" (Evening), created between 1765 and 1767, is a print by the French artist Louis Jacques Cathelin (1739-1804). The print depicts a mountainous landscape with a rushing river, a waterfall, a bridge, and figures in the foreground. The detailed depiction of the scene and the use of light and shadow give the print a sense of depth and realism. The print is dedicated to the Marquis de Marigny, a French politician and art collector. Cathelin, a prominent landscape artist, was known for his work in the style of the Rococo period.
