Erik Johan Smith

San Francesco
1929

This is an etching of a pastoral landscape scene featuring a cluster of buildings in the foreground surrounded by trees and vegetation. The middle ground shows terraced fields and cypress trees, while the background includes a dramatic sky with clouds above a distant horizon. The image has a dynamic range of dark and light areas, creating a sense of depth and texture. Handwritten text at the bottom appears to be the title and artist's signature.
