An original 19th-century etching on paper depicting a detailed architectural river scene.
41cm W * 51cm H
The composition features a prominent medieval mill or fortified bridge house with a timber balcony, situated over a river with figures in a boat in the foreground. Tall spires and a cityscape are visible in the background. The work is an intaglio print, specifically an etching, displaying fine, fluid lines and architectural precision.
The lower right corner of the plate bears a circular monogram cartouche reading "18(HHM)80", where the H, H, and M are interlaced. This monogram identifies the artist as Axel Herman Haig (also known as Axel Hägg) and dates the work to 1880. The print is housed behind glass in a carved wooden frame with a gilded inner slip. No other signatures or maker labels are visible on the reverse.
