About this work

This print shows a wild, rocky river valley with a waterfall hidden behind a cliff. The scene is full of gnarled trees, some bare, others leafy, scattered across rolling hills. A small stream winds through the foreground, and a few animals—maybe deer—graze near the water. The artist used soft light and shadow to make the landscape feel deep and real. The colors are mostly earthy browns and greens, with the waterfall glowing a pale yellow. Check out the artist’s use of chiaroscuro to see how light and dark create depth.
