Ameland I 1959

"Ameland I" is a 1959 etching by Dutch artist Sonja Toebes. The work, currently in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a rural landscape with a farmhouse in the foreground. Toebes is known for her evocative landscapes, often capturing the light and atmosphere of the Dutch countryside. This print uses a subtle range of grays, enhancing the sense of depth and perspective in the scene. The etching's minimalist approach and emphasis on form reflect the broader artistic trends of the late 1950s.
