Riva degli Schiavone, No. 1 is a 1880 ink by Frank Duveneck, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This etching depicts a bustling waterfront scene, with a long dock stretching into the distance. The dock is lined with people, some standing and others sitting, while several boats are moored alongside. In the background, a row of buildings rises up, with a few church steeples visible in the distance. The etching is rendered in a range of dark grays and blacks, with subtle textures and shading that give the scene a sense of depth and atmosphere. The artist's use of light and shadow creates a sense of drama and energy, drawing the viewer's eye into the heart of the scene.
