Adieu aux Karpatz 1857

"Adieu aux Karpatz" (1857) is an etching by the French artist Félix Bracquemond. The print depicts a solitary figure standing in a mountain pass, framed by towering rock formations. The moon shines brightly in the night sky, illuminating the landscape below. The use of dark and light tones creates a sense of mystery and solitude, reflecting the theme of farewell, as suggested by the title. This work exemplifies Bracquemond’s talent for capturing atmospheric effects and conveying a sense of emotional depth.
