Henri Ottmann particularly excelled in the pastel technique, as can be seen here.
This is due to the fact that this delicate material obviously lends itself very well to the artist's characteristic vaporous style and manner.
We should also note the great modernity of this landscape and its fades, which go almost as far as abstraction.

This drawing is a particularly interesting and touching example of Henri Ottmann's art. It shows his special technique, which gives priority to a kind of blur, and in this case it serves very well this scene of intimacy as if captured by stealth.
