The Priest's House, Rouen is a 1894 by James McNeill Whistler, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows a dark, old building with a steep roof and small windows. A narrow archway cuts through the wall, leading to a dim passage. The walls look rough, and the whole scene feels sketchy, like it was drawn quickly. The artist left out details, focusing on shapes and shadows instead of fine lines. This style was common in Impressionism and Realism. Look up James McNeill Whistler next to see how he played with light and mood.
James Abbott McNeill Whistler was an American painter in oils and watercolor, and printmaker, active during the American Gilded Age and based primarily in the United Kingdom.
