Engelberg c. 1880 - 1890

Edward Theodore Compton's "Engelberg," a watercolor landscape painted circa 1880-1890, captures the idyllic scenery of a Swiss mountain village. The painting showcases Compton's mastery of the medium, with delicate brushstrokes capturing the textures of the trees, the lush greenery, and the rustic wooden buildings. The meandering path leading up the mountainside adds a sense of tranquility and invites the viewer to imagine themselves exploring this serene environment.
