Mount Tacoma

Amerikanische Grafik 1893–1901, 1899

The artwork, titled "Mount Tacoma," presents a landscape view. The horizon is situated in the middle of the composition, where Mount Tacoma is depicted in the distance, covered in snow and blending into the pale sky. The mountain is surrounded by a range of blue and green hues, indicating a forested area below. Close to us, on the right side, slender trees with delicate branches and sparse leaves are captured in detail. The water in the foreground is calm, reflecting the tones of the sky and land. The color palette consists of blues, greens, and sandy browns. The brushstrokes are gentle and precise, lending a realistic quality to the work.
