Vinterlandskab 1777

"Vinterlandskab" (Winter Landscape) is an etching created by Johan Bülow in 1777. This small-scale artwork, currently housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, depicts a serene winter scene with a cluster of houses nestled amongst snow-covered hills. The simplified forms and subtle hatching technique create a sense of quietude and stillness, characteristic of Bülow's style. The composition emphasizes the vastness of the sky, a prominent feature in his landscape etchings, and the overall effect is one of peaceful solitude.
