Aften på havet 1893

"Aften på havet" (Evening at Sea), created in 1893 by Danish artist Carl Locher, captures a serene moment on the water. The etching depicts a seascape at dusk, with a large ship silhouetted against a sky filled with clouds. The calm water and distant figures in a rowboat add a sense of tranquility to the scene. Locher, known for his atmospheric depictions of landscapes and seascapes, masterfully uses light and shadow to create a sense of depth and mood in this small but impactful work. This piece, housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst in Denmark, is a testament to Locher's talent for capturing the beauty of the natural world.
