Keldergewelf 1825 - 1882

"Keldergewelf" is an etching by Jacobus Ludovicus Cornet, created between 1825 and 1882. This small work, measuring just 103 mm by 126 mm, depicts a shadowy, vaulted cellar with a stone pillar, a stairway, and a figure holding a lantern. The dark, atmospheric scene, rendered in fine lines, emphasizes the somberness of the underground space and evokes a sense of mystery. The etching is currently part of the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
