Two Cottages is a 1844 ink by Eugène Isabey, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting depicts two cottages, with the one on the left slightly larger than the one on the right. The cottages have thatched roofs and are surrounded by a few trees and bushes. In the foreground, there are some rocks and what appears to be a small stream or puddle. The painting is done in a romantic style, with soft lines and muted colors. The overall effect is one of serenity and peacefulness. If you're interested in learning more about the artist who created this piece, you might want to look up Isabey, Eugène.
