"Evening Atmosphere," Henriette Hahn-Brinckmann, 1904.
Hahn-Brinckmann (1862-1934) is a little-known Danish-German artist who worked in various styles, including Realism and Art Nouveau, and media, including paint, lithography, and as seen here, woodcut.
This is one of a series of woodcuts she did using Japanese tools and techniques, but using Western style and subject matter. Here we have a portrait of her friend, sculptor Niels Hansen Jacobsen, with a flowering vine and the light of the setting sun.
Ah, that flowering vine is so evocative! And the man's pose...I wonder if he's lost in thought, or reading, or just asleep...
From the Statens Museum for Kunst, Copenhagen.
