Landscape c. 19th century

This anonymous 19th-century pencil drawing, "Landscape," showcases a simple yet evocative scene of a distant landscape. The artist uses delicate lines to sketch a wide expanse of land, punctuated by a cluster of trees in the middle distance. The foreground is subtly defined by a series of strokes representing grass or foliage, suggesting a perspective of looking out over a field. The minimalist approach, with its emphasis on the open sky and the subtle details of the distant landscape, creates a sense of tranquility and contemplation. The artwork is a small yet intriguing study in the beauty of everyday landscapes.
