About this work

The painting shows a scene of a harbor with boats and buildings. It's an old etching, which is a technique where an artist uses acid to carve a design into metal. The artist made this in 1868, but I don't know much about them. You can learn more about the technique used to create this piece at the museum where it's kept, the National Gallery of Art, Washington, which features works made using the technique: etching.
