Paysage is a 1895 ink by Maurice Dumont, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This image shows a landscape etching in black on japan paper. The scene is a riverbank with a road or path running along it, lined with trees and buildings in the background. The sky is light, suggesting a daytime setting. In the foreground, the riverbank and road are prominent, with the trees and buildings receding into the distance. The etching technique gives the image a sense of texture and depth. This etching is reminiscent of the works of artists who explored the Impressionist movement.
