Rouen Illustré: Saint Etienne des Tonneliers is a 1896 by Auguste Lepère, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
The image depicts a black and white sketch of a building with a large arched window and a smaller window to its right. The building appears to be made of stone, with intricate details and carvings. In front of the building, there are several people standing and walking, some of whom are looking up at the building. The sketch is done in a detailed and realistic style, with a focus on capturing the textures and patterns of the building and its surroundings. The artist has used a range of shading techniques to create depth and dimension in the image. This painting is reminiscent of the work of artists who specialized in Impressionism and Realism, such as Auguste Louis Lepère.
Louis-Auguste Lepère (30 November 1849 – 20 November 1918) was a French painter and etcher. Lepère is also considered a leader in the creative revival of wood engraving in Europe.
