EDITORS COMMENTS
Adolphe Appian's Au Valromey, 1868 is a stunning black and white etching and drypoint on wove paper that transports us to the picturesque countryside of France during the 19th century. The artist masterfully captures the essence of the seasonal landscape with intricate detail, using the combination of etching and drypoint techniques to create a textured and nuanced depiction of the scene. Appian's Au Valromey is set in the rolling hills of rural France, with the village of Valromey nestled in the valley below. The landscape is bathed in the soft light of autumn, with the trees displaying a rich array of red, orange, and yellow leaves. In the foreground, a winding river cuts through the landscape, reflecting the vibrant colors of the foliage. The artist's use of lettering adds an extra layer of depth to the piece, with the title and the date carefully etched into the bottom right corner. The delicate lines and intricate details of the etching are further enhanced by the contrast between the light and dark areas, creating a sense of depth and dimension. Appian's Au Valromey is a beautiful example of the historic art of etching and drypoint, and a testament to the enduring appeal of the French countryside. This print is a must-see for any art lover or history buff, and a valuable addition to any collection. Currently, this exquisite piece can be found on display at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world.
