The English Elms is a 1933 ink by Childe Hassam, held at National Gallery of Art.
This etching shows a park with big trees and people walking around. The lines are sharp and detailed, especially on the tree trunks. The background stays soft in lighter tones, so the tree stands out. Hassam made many prints like this. He often worked in New York but traveled to England for this scene. The dry air and sharp lines give it a crisp, calm feeling. Look up another Hassam etching next.
Frederick Childe Hassam was an American Impressionist painter, noted for his urban and coastal scenes.
