Pigs in Orchard is a 1916 by Henry Keller, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This print shows a group of pigs rooting in an orchard under leafless trees. The branches twist sharply against a light background, and the pigs are drawn in thick, rough lines that leave some areas blank. Shadows and scratches fill the ground, making it look uneven. The artist used only black ink on a light surface, which makes the scene feel rough and sketchy. The trees have no leaves, so the focus is on the pigs and the tangled branches.
