Gezicht op de kathedraal van Salisbury 1812 - 1882

This etching by David Lucas, created between 1812 and 1882, depicts the Salisbury Cathedral in England. The artwork captures the essence of English Romanticism, emphasizing the grandeur of the cathedral against a backdrop of dramatic, stormy skies and a serene river. The artist’s use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and atmosphere, drawing the viewer into the scene. The small size of the artwork, measuring just 177 mm in height and 248 mm in width, adds to its intimate appeal.
