Ajaccio 1921

"Ajaccio" is a 1921 etching by the Dutch artist Lodewijk Schelfhout (1881-1943). It is a view of the city of Ajaccio, the capital of Corsica, seen from the water. The composition features a stylized representation of the city, with a prominent mountain range in the background. The black and white print showcases the artist's skillful use of line and shadow to create a sense of depth and atmosphere. This artwork, housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to Schelfhout's mastery of etching and his keen observation of the world around him.
