Forest path at evening, print, printmaker: Anton L. Koster, 1869 - 1937, paper, etching, intaglio printmaking technique, height 155 mm x width 207 mm, forest path or lane, evening, A monochrome etching of a wooded landscape showing tall slender tree trunks and dense leafy canopies framing a winding river or stream that flows from the foreground toward the middle distance, with textured grassy and shrubby banks, tangled undergrowth, and areas of crosshatched shadow. The sky is lightly marked with swirling lines and there is a darker silhouette of trees atop a distant ridge, while closer trees cast intricate linear patterns across the water and ground. The image is composed of fine, overlapping line work and varied hatching that create depth and contrast between the darker foliage and the paler sky and water.
