Bosgezicht in Elswout c. 1886

"Bosgezicht in Elswout" (c. 1886) is a black and white etching by Dutch artist Carel Nicolaas Storm van 's-Gravesande, known for his landscapes. The work depicts a wooded pathway with two figures walking in the distance, their silhouettes barely visible against the dense trees. The dense, overlapping branches of the trees create a sense of depth and mystery, characteristic of Storm van 's-Gravesande's work. This artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, captures the tranquil beauty of the Dutch countryside, a common subject in his artistic repertoire.
