1887
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
An Old House, Cleveland is a 1887 by Otto Henry Bacher, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows a simple, two-story wooden house with a slanted roof and small windows. The walls are drawn in quick, rough lines, and the house sits on a patch of uneven ground with a few scattered boards. A tall lamp post leans near the front door, and a tiny porch juts out from the right side. The drawing feels quick and unfinished, like a snapshot more than a polished work. It’s all about the basic shapes and light—no fancy details. If you like this style, check out Realism next.
