Sunset c. 19th century

"Sunset," a 19th-century etching by American artist William "Willy" Miller (1850-1923), depicts a tranquil landscape scene. The artwork, now housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, captures a serene sunset over a winding stream in a wooded countryside, with a prominent tree in the foreground and a group of figures visible in the water. Miller’s artistic style, evident in the etching’s delicate lines and soft shading, highlights the beauty of nature and its peaceful atmosphere. The artwork’s small size and intimate subject matter make it a popular choice for art enthusiasts seeking a serene and evocative landscape scene.
