Landscape (Paysage)

Französische Grafik 1891–1893, 1893

The artwork titled "Landscape (Paysage)" shows a rural scene viewed from an elevated perspective. The horizon is placed high, showing the expanse of the land. Closest to us, a figure stands on a gently sloping field. The area is bordered by leafless trees with twisting branches, which line the path leading into the distance. A fence runs along the rolling hills. Beyond, a row of dark evergreen trees stands against a pale sky with subtle cloud shapes. The color palette consists of soft yellows and browns, with delicate, linear brushstrokes creating texture and depth.
