Landscape with Stars

Henri-Edmond Cross (Henri-Edmond Delacroix)

ca. 1905–1908 · Watercolor on white wove paper · Robert Lehman Collection

This poetic depiction of a star-streaked sky combines the long broken brushstrokes of Cross's late works with a murky landscape of pen and ink, reminiscent in its impressionistic forms of Japanese painting.
