Moonrise 1955

"Moonrise" (1955) is a black and white print by American artist Stow Wengenroth (1906-1978). The image depicts a peaceful woodland scene with a full moon rising above the treetops. The moon is reflected in a still pond in the foreground, adding to the serene atmosphere. Wengenroth's detailed lines and delicate shading create a sense of realism in the depiction of the trees, water, and foliage. This work is a fine example of the artist’s mastery of landscape art and his skillful use of light and shadow.
