Landschap met boom in het midden 1831 - 1904

"Landschap met boom in het midden" (Landscape with a Tree in the Middle), created between 1831 and 1904 by Dutch artist Arnoud Schaepkens, is a small etching that captures a peaceful scene of a lone tree standing tall in a field. The simple composition highlights the stark contrasts between the tree's dark silhouette and the light background, creating a sense of tranquility and isolation. This etching is representative of the romantic period in art, often depicting nature in a raw, unadulterated way.
