Various Figures and Landscapes is a 1649 by Stefano Della Bella, a Baroque work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This etching shows two people standing on a rocky shore. The man wears a wide-brimmed hat, a long coat, and striped pants. Behind him, a woman in a hooded cloak leans over a bundle on the ground. In the background, a city skyline with buildings and a bridge stretches across the water. The man’s pose and the cityscape suggest this might be a scene of travel or arrival. The etching’s style is detailed but simple, focusing on clear lines and textures. If you like this, look up Baroque next for more dramatic, lively art from the same time.
