About this motif
Landscape etchings are among the classic subjects of printmaking. Fine lines are particularly good at capturing light, water and wide spaces atmospherically.
Behrens' "Dusk" shows two sailing barges with dark sails on calm water, with reeds in the foreground and a moving evening sky above. Image about 8 x 11 cm on an 18 x 24 cm sheet, black and white or hand-coloured, framed on request – a quiet picture for lovers of the northern German landscape.
