Landscape with a Steep Cliff, Small Version

counterproof of a line etching, on a blue-grey ground, second state of two, c. 1622-1625

Using another impression of the adjacent etching (RP-P-1910-2012), Segers made a counterproof: while the ink was still wet he printed it on another sheet of paper prepared with a bluish grey ground. The counterproof is the reverse image of the etching.
