"A Street in Seville" is a small etching by the Spanish artist Mariano Fortuny Marsal, created sometime before his untimely death in 1874. The scene depicts a street in Seville, Spain, with three figures walking along the cobblestones. The etching is notable for its detailed rendering of the figures and the architecture, as well as its use of light and shadow to create a sense of depth and atmosphere. The Art Institute of Chicago houses this tiny etching, measuring a mere 58 x 100 millimeters. This small print is a fine example of Fortuny’s etching technique, which he utilized in his series of works dedicated to the city of Seville.
