The Two Fishermen is a 1712 ink by Joachim Franz Beich, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This black-and-white print shows a quiet river scene with two small figures fishing near the shore. Trees line the water’s edge, and a rocky hill rises in the background. The artist used shading to show depth, making the scene feel alive even without color. The two fishermen sit close together, their boats tied to the bank. The trees and rocks are drawn with fine, detailed lines, giving the landscape a sense of solidity. Next, look up etching to see how this technique works.
Joachim Franz Beich (1704–1714) was an artist.
