A man in a coat stands on a rocky shore. Waves crash behind him. The sky is dark and cloudy. This is an etching by George Cuitt the Younger. You can see each line where he scratched the metal plate. The thin paper makes the lines crisp. If you like this line work, look up the artist Cuitt the Younger, George.
