Theodorus van Hoytema's 1907 print, "Migratory Birds on a Moonlit Night," depicts a serene nighttime scene. The artist's signature is visible in the bottom right corner. The print features a dark, forested landscape with a body of water reflecting the light of the moon. The sky above is filled with wispy clouds, and the trees are silhouetted against the night sky. The print is a testament to Hoytema's mastery of printmaking and his ability to capture the beauty of nature. This artwork is a great example of Dutch landscape art. It currently resides in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
