Melchior Küsel; Roelant Roghman
Melchior Küsel and Roelant Roghman were collaborators active in the field of printmaking, documented specifically around the year 1627. Their joint output focused primarily on detailed, dramatic landscape compositions emphasizing natural structures and architectural features.
Five of their high-quality prints are represented in major museum collections, establishing the artists’ legacy within the 17th-century landscape tradition. These works consistently depict rugged or monumental natural scenes. Representative titles include the architectural study The Column and the dramatic water feature The Waterfall. Other works, such as Riverscape with Rocks on the Right, Rocky Landscape with Cross, and Rocky Landscape with Fir, highlight their focus on demanding, isolated environments.
The works of Melchior Küsel; Roelant Roghman prints are preserved in the permanent collection of the National Gallery of Art. Due to their historic importance, these detailed compositions, often deemed museum-quality, are frequently sourced as downloadable artwork for research purposes.
