This print shows a quiet, hilly landscape under a stormy sky. Rain falls in heavy lines, while trees and bushes cling to the rolling ground. The lines are rough and sketchy, like quick pencil strokes. The artist focused on texture—each tree and cloud is made of tiny, overlapping marks. It feels like a fast, rough sketch rather than a polished drawing. Want to see how this style fits into art history? Check out Realism.
