"Altenberg (Ertsgebergte)" is a 1923 woodcut by Dutch artist Leo Gestel, depicting a snowy landscape with a village in the background. The simplified lines and dark tones of the woodcut are characteristic of Gestel's expressionist style, which he developed in the early 20th century. The work, now in the Rijksmuseum collection, offers a glimpse into the artist's fascination with rural scenes and the power of nature.
