Lake Nemi 1794

"Lake Nemi" is an etching by Albert Christoph Dies, a German artist known for his landscape and architectural prints. Created in 1794, the artwork depicts a serene lakeside scene with a distant view of a castle nestled on a rocky hillside. Lush foliage frames the foreground, while the lake reflects the cloudy sky. The meticulous detail and delicate lines of the etching create a sense of tranquility and intimacy. The print is housed at The Art Institute of Chicago.
