About the piece

Painted in 1877 by Hermann Ottomar Herzog, this work captures the rugged beauty of Winona Falls. Herzog's mastery of light is evident in the contrast between the dark, deep forest background and the bright, churning white water of the cascade, while a solitary bird in flight adds a sense of vast wilderness to the composition.
