Henri Rivière

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Prodigal Son: page 43 by Henri Rivière. A landscape-oriented image depicts a large group of people in silhouette. The silhouetted figures are on and near a low hill. The hill has a large tree on the right side. The tree has a wide canopy. Behind the tree is a light-colored circular area. On the left side is a tall, narrow, cliff-like formation. People are on top of the formation. The people are dressed in what appear to be simple, short garments. Many of them hold sticks or spears. The sky is light blue with scattered clouds. The image is in shades of gray on a beige background. The image has a thin black border around it. The image is on a thicker beige piece of paper.
