Top of the Hill (Le haut de la colline)

Top of the Hill (Le haut de la colline) is a print by Alphonse Legros. 



The artwork depicts a landscape scene viewed from a slightly elevated perspective. The foreground features rolling hills covered with various types of trees and shrubs, rendered with detailed hatching and cross-hatching techniques. A prominent tree trunk dominates the right side of the composition. In the middle ground, a body of water, possibly a river or stream, is partially visible. Beyond the hills, a flat plain extends to a distant range of mountains under a light sky. A structure, possibly a ruined castle or fortress, is visible on a hill in the left middle ground. The overall style is naturalistic, with an emphasis on the textures and forms of the landscape elements. The print is done in shades of gray, creating a sense of depth and atmosphere.
