If you wish to purchase this insightful depiction of the wetlands (fen) in the North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW) region surrounding Düsseldorf—please note, for example, how the artist subtly varies the tone of the tree trunks on the left to complement changes in the background’s light and dark passages (darker trunks against lighter backgrounds and vice versa), and how the grass tuffs in the water are rendered in black to create a gleaming effect of light on water—please contact me at oz_jim@printsandprinciples.com.
