Stranded is a large and impressive example of the etched art of Knud Eel. Using layers of both black and gray aquatint to create strong tonal values the etching depicts a storm at sea (probably off the coast of Jutland) where a fishing vessel has run aground. On the shore villagers have managed to pass a lifeline to the boat and the perilous rescue attempt is underway. | |
