Description
This intaglio, printed in sepia ink is by Norwegian printmaker Arent Lauritz Christensen (1894-1982).
The British Museum has what seems to be a similar intaglio, "No.39" which they describe as a "Landscape with hill in mid-distance on which are scattered trees, olive tree in foreground. c.1920s". The impression is not illustrated.
This impression is titled "Landscab" (Landscape) and then annotated in Danish, [Kaldnaal]<,i> which translates to "Drypoint", the intaglio method used to create the composition.
From the collection of the Danish writer, critic, and collector, Georg Frederik Brøchner (1847-1933). Brøchner wrote many articles for The Studio and The International Studio.
