Getting started with the collection:
Landscape with a Waterfall, Second Version
Hercules Segers, c. 1625 - c. 1627
The peculiar spots in the sky are caused by false biting, which occurs when the plate is not properly covered with etching ground or stopping-out varnish. The sun-like round spot encircled by a ring of light looks surreal.
