About this work

This is a print of a quiet street in Greenwich, England. You see old brick buildings and a lone figure walking. Trees line the path, their shadows long. Haden made prints, not paintings. This one uses deep, dark lines to show light and shadow. The technique is called etching. It lets him draw like a pencil but on metal. If this grabs you, look up James McNeill Whistler. He used similar etching styles.
