1879
From the collection of Victoria and Albert Museum
Swanage. Cart shed. 1879. is a 1879 by (Francis) Seymour Haden, a Impressionism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This sketch shows a simple wooden shed with a sloped roof, sitting on a grassy patch. The lines are loose and quick, like a rough note. In the background, a faint hill rises, and a few trees peek out. The artist used thin, repeated lines to build up shadows—no heavy shading. It feels like a fast, rough sketch, not a finished drawing. Check out cross-hatching to see how artists create depth with lines.
Sir Francis Seymour Haden PPRE, was an English surgeon, better known as an original etcher who championed original printmaking.
