A Haarlem is a 1877 ink by Maxime Lalanne, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This sketch shows a busy waterfront scene with a tall windmill at the center. Boats are docked along the shore, and people walk near buildings and cranes. In the background, a church tower rises above trees. The artist used fine lines to show light and shadow, making the scene feel lively but also a bit hazy. The windmill and boats suggest this might be a Dutch port town. Next, look up etching to see how artists like this one create detailed prints.
François Antoine Maxime Lalanne (November 27, 1827 – July 29, 1886) was a French artist known for his etchings and charcoal drawings (fusain).
