Rolling landscape with village, print, printmaker: Johannes Löhr, 1892 - 1928, paper, etching, intaglio printmaking technique, height 102 mm x width 285 mm, prospect of village, silhouette of village, low hill country, A wide, horizontal sketch of a rural landscape rendered in fine, dark lines on a light, aged background, showing low rolling hills that recede into the distance under a sky filled with wispy, curved cloud strokes; the foreground features a gently sloping hillside with scattered short grasses and a dense cluster of trees and shrubs rendered with short, textured marks, within which a few small, simple roofed structures appear; beyond the trees, open fields are indicated by long, horizontal lines and subtle variations in shading, punctuated by occasional isolated trees and small building outlines along the horizon; faint, sketchy marks and smudges are visible across the surface, giving an overall impression of a lightly worked etching.
