My Dream is a 1883 ink by Rodolphe Bresdin, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting is a black and white etching, titled "My Dream". It depicts a bustling harbor scene, with many boats and people. The atmosphere is lively, with activity all around. In the foreground, a figure stands on a boat, looking out at the viewer. The background is filled with tall buildings and steeples, giving a sense of depth and scale. The overall mood is one of energy and movement. This painting is reminiscent of the work of Gustave Dore, another artist known for his detailed and imaginative etchings.
