The Vale of Clyde 1898

"The Vale of Clyde" is an etching by Scottish artist David Young Cameron, created in 1898. The artwork, now held by The Art Institute of Chicago, depicts a serene landscape scene with a river winding through a valley, framed by trees. The etching is notable for its sensitive handling of light and shadow, creating a sense of depth and atmosphere. Cameron's use of fine lines and delicate shading characterizes his distinct style, which is often associated with the Glasgow School of Art. This artwork is a testament to Cameron's talent as a printmaker and his ability to capture the beauty of the natural world.
