"Fra Slotsparken" (From the Palace Park) is a 1895 etching by Danish artist Axel Holm (1861-1935). The work depicts a view of a palace park, with trees framing the path and a building partially visible in the background. The etching's meticulous detail and realistic depiction of light and shadow are characteristic of Holm's style. This work, currently housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, exemplifies Holm's mastery of landscape etching and his ability to capture the tranquility of nature.
