Caption

Hooipper, print, printmaker: Pieter Dupont, North Holland, c. 1894 - c. 1895, paper, zinkets, intaglio printmaking technique, height 155 mm x width 155 mm, hay-stack, A large, rounded structure made of closely packed, straw-like lines fills the center of the image, with layered bands and tied bindings across its slope and a small pointed top; thin sticks and knots protrude at various points in the straw texture. The background shows a pale, textured sky with faint, wispy cloud outlines. To the right of the straw structure, a tall slender tree with clustered foliage and intricate branch details stands beside other smaller vegetation. The foreground contains flowing, curving lines suggesting grasses or furrows, with darker shaded areas and subtle contour lines creating depth at the base of the main structure. The image is rendered in fine, dark linework on a beige, slightly mottled surface.
