L'Entrée de Landemere (The Hague) is a 1872 ink by Félix-Hilaire Buhot, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This sketch shows a quiet village scene with a winding road and small houses. A lone figure walks alongside a cow, heading toward the cluster of buildings. The sky is dark and stormy, while the trees and fields are drawn with quick, sketchy lines. Notice how the artist used shading to make the clouds and trees look almost three-dimensional. The paper has a slightly textured feel, which is common in etchings. Look up etching to see how artists like this one create prints with acid and metal plates.
Félix-Hilaire Buhot (1847–1898) was a French artist, born in Valognes.
