In the picture effect corresponding to that of the aquatint technique not used by Ridinger anymore. – On buff wide-margined paper of impeccable freshness. – Small marginal tear off in the white margin left. – Compared with the etching the top rounding here enlarged to the square and treated accordingly freer in the wood landscape, but also in the immediate foreground.
