"A River Between Rocks" is an etching by Flemish artist Herman Naijwincx, part of his "Set of Landscapes" series. The artwork, housed at The Art Institute of Chicago, depicts a river winding between two rocky cliffs, with a building perched on a hilltop on the right. Naijwincx's detailed cross-hatching technique, used to create a sense of depth and texture, is characteristic of his landscape work. His artistic style, influenced by the Italian Renaissance, is evident in the composition's balanced elements and focus on light and shadow, creating a dramatic scene.
