Moonlight Possibly 1903

"Moonlight" is a small, atmospheric print by Arthur E. Becher, created possibly in 1903. The print depicts a nocturnal landscape, featuring a large tree silhouetted against a moonlit sky. The artist uses a stippling technique to create a sense of depth and texture, capturing the soft glow of the moon on the foliage and the surrounding landscape. The print's small size and intimate subject matter evoke a sense of quiet contemplation, drawing the viewer into the serenity of the night. The print, now housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, is a fine example of the romanticism and realism that characterized the artistic movement of the early 20th century.
