Charles Frederick William Mielatz
1893
ink
From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Untitled (Garden Scene) is a 1893 ink by Charles Frederick William Mielatz, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This black-and-white print shows a quiet village scene. A man walks across a plowed field, pulling a wheelbarrow. Nearby, a dog lies on the ground, and a few small baskets sit scattered with tools. In the background, bare trees frame wooden houses and a tall stone tower. The artist used fine lines to show every detail, from the folds in the man’s clothes to the texture of the soil. This kind of careful drawing is typical of *etching*, where acid eats into metal plates to create the image. Try looking up etching to see how artists make prints like this one.
Charles Frederick William Mielatz (né Karl Friedrich Wilhelm Mielatz; May 24, 1864 – July 2, 1919) was a Prussian-born American etcher, graphic artist, painter, lithographer, and educator.
