Caption

Landscape with farmhouse, print, printmaker: Willem de Zwart, 1872 - 1931, paper, etching, intaglio printmaking technique, height 255 mm x width 305 mm, farm or solitary house in landscape, A sepia-toned scene rendered in fine dark lines shows large leafy trees dominating the middle and background, their dense canopies creating textured silhouettes against a lighter sky. Fragments of buildings with sloped roofs and rectangular openings appear at the edges, partially obscured by the foliage. In the foreground a grassy, uneven ground is indicated by short strokes and clusters of vegetation, with a suggestion of a low wall or raised bank near the center. The sky is mostly empty except for faint scratches and speckled marks, and the overall image has an etched, crosshatched quality.
