Gewelf met bewaker 1831 - 1904

"Gewelf met bewaker" is an etching by Dutch artist Arnoud Schaepkens, created between 1831 and 1904. The artwork depicts a figure standing within a dark arched passageway, illuminated by light streaming in from the left. The use of chiaroscuro, with contrasting light and dark areas, creates a sense of mystery and depth, typical of Schaepkens' style. The etching's small dimensions, measuring 230mm in height and 164mm in width, enhance the intimate and atmospheric qualities of the scene.
