Dundrum River and the Two Asses is a 1863 by Francis Seymour Haden, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This etching shows a quiet river scene near Dundrum. Two donkeys stand near the water’s edge. Trees frame the view. It looks like a normal day. Haden cut one printing plate in half. He joined the pieces back together differently. Then he added pencil work on top. This made the scene feel more alive. Ever tried an old-style etching? Look up Francis Seymour Haden.
