Four Hours of the Day: Evening

"Four Hours of the Day: Evening" is a wood engraving by Adrien Lavieille that depicts the atmospheric qualities and social activity characteristic of evening hours. The work employs the fine linear marks and tonal variations typical of wood engraving to capture the transitional light and mood of day's end. As part of a series exploring different times of day, this print demonstrates Lavieille's skill in rendering both natural phenomena and human figures within a single compositional framework.
