Berglandschap met figuren op een weg langs een rotswand 1818 - 1866

This etching by Belgian artist Edouard De Vigne, titled "Berglandschap met figuren op een weg langs een rotswand" and created between 1818 and 1866, depicts a dramatic mountain landscape. The scene shows a steep rocky cliff with a path winding its way through the valley, leading the viewer's eye to the distant peaks. Two figures are faintly visible on the path, adding a sense of scale and human presence to the otherwise vast and imposing landscape. De Vigne's masterful use of light and shadow creates depth and texture, highlighting the rugged beauty of the mountain scenery. This work exemplifies the Romantic fascination with nature and its sublime power.
