About this work

This painting shows a scene from 1894, but it's actually a photograph. It's interesting because the photographer used a specific style to create a sense of depth. The photo is quite old and was acquired by the Museum of Ethnography in 1959, which suggests it has some historical value. You can learn more about this style by looking into the technique of sfumato.
