Artist, French, 1875 - 1963

The image shows a landscape with a slightly elevated vantage point. The horizon is near the top, featuring distant hills and structures that seem part of a village or town. A church steeple emerges from a cluster of buildings and trees. The style is detailed etching with cross-hatching and line work. The color palette is monochromatic, with shades of sepia and black. The ground close to us has pronounced lines, while the background has softly etched hills.
