Une Ferme
ink
From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Une Ferme is an ink by François Liénard, held at National Gallery of Art.
This etching shows a simple farmhouse with a steep roof, surrounded by trees. In front, a group of people herd sheep along a dirt path. The trees are detailed with crosshatching, and the sky is lightly marked with lines. The whole scene looks quiet and everyday. The title *Une Ferme* means "A Farm" in French, which fits what you see. The artist used lines to build up shadows and textures, like on the sheep and buildings. Check out etching to see how artists like this one create prints with acid and metal plates.
