Six views in the Wood of the Hague: Plate 2 is a 1646 by Roelant Roghman, a Baroque work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This black-and-white print shows a quiet forest scene with a small stream running through it. Tall trees fill the background, their branches thick and tangled. In the middle, three people walk along the path near the water, with a dog trotting ahead of them. The artist focused on the play of light and shadow to make the trees look almost three-dimensional. The sky is lightly sketched, letting the trees take center stage. Next, check out The Cleveland Museum of Art to see more prints like this.
