Mountain landscape with resting figures on a rock, print, printmaker: Guillaume Van der Hecht, 1827 - 1879, paper, etching, intaglio printmaking technique, etching with plate tone, height 241 mm x width 170 mm, mountains (landscape with figures, staffage), A monochrome etched landscape showing steep, rugged cliffs rising in the background beneath a large semicircular sky filled with horizontal shading and swirling cloud forms, with layered rock faces and shadowed crevices. In the midground a flat rocky ledge juts outward, bordered by dense foliage and trees including tall slender palms and a bushy tree with detailed leaves. On the ledge two small human figures stand close together, and nearby another seated figure rests; more small figures appear seated slightly farther back on the rock. At the lower edge, a shoreline with textured plants and low rocks meets a calm body of water where a small sailboat is visible. Intricate linework and crosshatching create texture across rocks, trees, and sky.
