This etching by Dresden artist Erika Richter has a depth and vibrancy that inevitably captivates the viewer. The artist focuses on depictions of landscapes. It seems as if she is zooming in deeply and subjecting the various layers of rock and sediment to a study. The motif of this print refers to a rock formation in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains in Saxony, Germany.

About Erika Richter

Erika Richter (born 1994 in Dresden, Germany) is a painter and visual artist whose work also extends into printmaking. A graduate and Meisterschülerin of the Hochschule für Bildende Künste Dresden, she explores structures and transformations found in nature through both paint and print. Her etchings and aquatints complement her painterly approach, translating the same sensitivity to surface and tone into graphic form. Richter has exhibited widely across Germany, establishing herself as part of a younger generation of Dresden-based artists.

About Etching

Originating in medieval Europe, etching became one of the most important printmaking techniques of the old masters. Using acid to bite designs into metal plates, artists achieved remarkable detail and expression.
