Sessler, Class of 1913, Fund for the Belle Kleinert Sessler Collection83.076 a0One of "a pair of spring/summer landcape" (as written on the accompanying wooden box) by the same artist. In the foreground, a figure holding an umbrella rushes across a footbridge towards a cluster of trees whose foliages and trunks are blurred by wet ink wash. Across from the body of water in the middle ground are more rugged terrain and mountains dotted by trees, all shrouded in rain or mist. Dramatic contrasts of light and dark give rise to a luxuriant atmospheric effect.
