Alexandre Calame was a Swiss artist renowned for his landscapes, particularly those depicting the Alps. This 1852-1855 work, "Berglandschap met bomen en een meer," exemplifies his mastery of detail and atmospheric depiction. The print portrays a serene mountain scene, featuring a cluster of trees flanking a rocky stream that meanders towards a distant, misty mountain range. Calame's work captures the grandeur of the Swiss landscape, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the beauty of nature. The piece is a fine example of 19th-century landscape painting, a genre popular for its romantic depiction of nature.
