Beschreibung
The print titled "Capri" is a steel engraving from the 1880s, meticulously crafted after an original work by H. Fenn and engraved by Krausse. The image depicts a scenic view of the island of Capri, Italy, showcasing its rugged coastline and lush vegetation. In the foreground, tall pine trees frame the scene, with their branches extending towards the viewer, adding depth and perspective. A stone structure, possibly a villa or a small castle, nestles amidst the foliage, hinting at the island's rich history and architectural heritage. The middle ground reveals a winding path leading down to the shore, where the calm sea stretches out to the horizon, punctuated by the distinctive rock formations known as the Faraglioni. In the distance, the silhouette of mountains adds a dramatic backdrop, while a few sailboats dot the tranquil waters, suggesting a serene maritime atmosphere. The engraving captures the natural beauty and tranquility of Capri, reflecting the artistic and cultural significance of the island during the 19th century. Henry Fenn, the original artist, was known for his detailed and picturesque landscapes, often depicting European scenes with a romantic and idyllic touch.
