Stormachtig landschap met beek c. 1849 - 1905

"Stormachtig landschap met beek" (Stormy Landscape with Stream) is a charcoal drawing by Ferdinand Carl Sierich, created sometime between 1849 and 1905. The drawing depicts a dramatic landscape with a rushing stream, a bare tree silhouetted against a stormy sky, and a darkened, rocky foreground. Sierich's use of charcoal creates a moody and atmospheric scene, suggesting a sense of power and turmoil in nature. The drawing is a small work, measuring just 119 mm in height and 189 mm in width, but it is a powerful example of Sierich's skill as a draftsman. The drawing is likely a study for a larger work, and it is a valuable insight into the artist's creative process.
