A River in Ireland is a 1864 by Francis Seymour Haden, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows a quiet river winding through a wooded area. Trees line the banks, their branches thick and tangled. A small bridge arches over the water, and the whole scene is drawn in loose, quick lines—no color, just black and white. The artist focused on how light plays on the water and leaves, making shadows soft and shapes fuzzy. It looks like they were working fast, maybe outside. Next, check out Francis Seymour Haden—he was a key figure in early British etching.
