About this work

This image is a woodcut print featuring a landscape with abstract shapes and lines. The print is rendered in black ink on a beige background, with a prominent black border surrounding the central image. The landscape depicts a boat on water, with hills or mountains in the background. A notable detail is the artist's signature, "Schmidt-Rottluff," in the bottom-left corner of the print. This suggests that the artist was intentional about leaving their mark on the work. For more information on the artist's use of woodcut techniques, explore the works of Karl Schmidt-Rottluff.
