1915
ink
From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Low Tide, Cos Cob Bridge is a 1915 ink by Childe Hassam, held at National Gallery of Art.
This sketch shows a rickety wooden house by the water. The walls are rough, the roof sagging. A small boat sits on the shore, half in the sand. In the background, a bridge stretches over the water, with people walking on it. The artist used quick, scratchy lines to show texture—like the wood and the water. The scene looks quiet, maybe early morning. Next, check out etching to see how artists make prints like this.
Frederick Childe Hassam was an American Impressionist painter, noted for his urban and coastal scenes.
