1885
ink
From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Untitled (Landscape with Fisherman) is a 1885 ink by Thomas Charles Farrer, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This print shows a quiet river scene with tall trees framing the view. A lone person stands near the water, maybe fishing. The background has a small building and rolling hills, all drawn in dark lines with soft shading. The artist used fine details to show light on the water and leaves. This style was common in late 19th-century prints to capture fleeting moments. Look up etching to see how artists like this made delicate prints with acid and needles.
Thomas Charles Farrer (16 December 1838 in London – 16 June 1891 in London) was an English-born painter and teacher of painting who also worked in the United States. Among his students was Francis Lathrop.
