From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Deep Valley in Mountainous Landscape is a 1858 ink by William Hart, a Romanticism work, depicting Mountain, held at National Gallery of Art.
The painting shows a deep valley surrounded by mountains. It's drawn with pen and brown ink, and has a brown wash over it. The artist used simple lines to create a sense of depth and distance. The use of brown ink and wash gives the painting a warm, earthy feel. This suggests the artist was trying to create a cozy atmosphere. You can learn more about this style by looking into the technique: cross-hatching.
William Hart (March 31, 1823 – June 17, 1894), was a Scottish-born American landscape and cattle painter, and Hudson River School artist.
