Lake Geneva by Etienne Bosch, 1873-1931

Etienne Bosch captures the serene atmosphere of Lake Geneva (Meer van Genève) with delicate, scratchy lines that make the water look like it's shimmering in the sunlight. Sailboats glide effortlessly across the foreground, their reflections dancing on the surface, while rugged mountains loom majestically in the back. This piece feels like a spontaneous sketch—a hallmark of the Impressionist movement—freezing a peaceful moment in time rather than a stiff, formal portrait of the landscape. The small numbers in the bottom corner reveal it's a limited edition print (number 12 of 50), making it a rare little window into a tranquil afternoon on the water.
