"Segovia" is a lithograph created in 1903 by American artist Joseph Pennell. The piece depicts the city of Segovia, Spain, from a low vantage point, showcasing the city's iconic Alcázar, a towering fortress. Pennell's use of light and shadow in the lithograph creates a sense of depth and drama, with the city bathed in a soft glow. The piece showcases Pennell's mastery of the lithograph medium and his fascination with the architecture and landscapes of Europe. The work is currently housed in the Art Institute of Chicago.
