Etching of a dusk river scene with dark silhouetted trees, a bare tree at right, reeds in the foreground, and a hatched grey sky.

On the Schroon — Evening

A dark etching of a still river at dusk, with silhouetted trees on the left, a bare branching tree on the right, and low reeds in the foreground under a pale, hatched sky. Fine, dense lines of etched hatching build tone across the sky and water; the signature sits at lower right.
