The Holy Trinity of the Castles in the Air 1913

Joseph Pennell’s etching, "The Holy Trinity of the Castles in the Air", depicts a fantastical scene of three towering rock formations. The central rock is topped with a small structure, possibly a church or monastery, while the other two rock formations flank it. The artist’s use of fine lines creates a sense of depth and texture, showcasing the detail of the landscape. The etching, created in 1913, is considered to be a fine example of Pennell’s ability to capture the beauty of architecture and nature in his work. It's housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, and is a must-see for fans of etching, landscape art, and architectural illustrations.
