Cacciatore (The Hunter) 1905

Vico Viganò's 1905 etching, "Cacciatore (The Hunter)," depicts a solitary figure silhouetted against a dense, wintry landscape. The hunter, hunched over in the foreground, seems to be examining something on the ground, his presence emphasized by the stark contrast between his dark form and the lighter, more open background. The artist’s use of stark contrasts and meticulous detail creates a sense of isolation and mystery in this evocative print, a hallmark of his signature style.
