Wrapper for "Voyage en bateau" is a 1862 ink by Charles François Daubigny, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
The image shows a piece of paper with a rectangular design in the center. The design features a curved line of grasses and reeds, with a small boat in the water below. The text "Voyage en bateau" is written above the boat, with "Poques à l'Eau Forte" and "PAR DAUBIGNY 1862" below. The design is surrounded by a subtle border, with some faint lines and marks visible on the paper. The overall effect is one of simplicity and elegance, with the focus on the central design. This etching is a great example of the Impressionism movement.
