Her work includes “varied landscape portraits with rural-village architecture, while the main and later works are devoted to depicting Willingshausen, the surrounding villages and small towns, the Hessian landscape and individual trees or entire groups. Henriette Schmidt-Bonn used a realistic stylistic language and formulated her observations in the media of hand drawing, watercolor and etching - less in oil, rarely in woodcut ”.
