Alstertal vor Wellingsbüttel 1900

"Alstertal vor Wellingsbüttel" is a woodcut print created in 1900 by German artist Karl Wilhelm Arthur Illies (1870-1952). The print depicts a serene landscape with a winding river leading to a small village nestled in the distance, and a windmill on a hill overlooking the valley. The work exemplifies Illies's style, which often featured idyllic rural scenes with detailed textures and a strong sense of light and shadow. Illies is known for his woodcuts and etchings that captured the beauty of nature, particularly in his native Germany.
