This artwork is a black and white engraving titled *Norsk landskab. Aktiebrev i Norske Skierper og Bergbygnings Geverkskab* by Frederik Ludvig Bradt from 1682 to 1782. The engraving depicts a landscape with a waterfall in the background and some figures in the foreground. The engraving was likely a stock certificate for the Norwegian mining and smelting company, "Norske Skierper og Bergbygnings Geverkskab." The piece was likely commissioned to promote the company and encourage investment in the business. Bradt was a prominent Norwegian painter and engraver, known for his landscapes. This artwork is a fine example of 18th-century engraving and is currently housed in the Statens Museum for Kunst.
