River Landscape with Two Beavers is a 1807 ink by Max Joseph Wagenbauer, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This picture shows two beavers by a river, gnawing on a tree branch. The water is calm, with reeds and rocks along the shore. In the background, there’s a fence, trees, and rolling hills under a cloudy sky. The artist used a smooth, sketchy style that makes the scene feel alive but also dreamy. The beavers look busy, like they’re building something. Next, check out how this was made using lithography.
