Auf Stauf a-Bruck is a 1879 by Otto Henry Bacher, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows a flooded village with people wading through water. A small wooden house sits on a raised hill, surrounded by trees and a few other buildings. The scene is drawn in loose, quick lines, with dark ink on light paper. The title, *Auf Stauf a-Bruck*, is written in the corner—it’s the name of the place. The artist focused on everyday life, not polished perfection. Look up Realism next to see how artists like this captured ordinary moments.
Otto Henry Bacher (May 31, 1856, Cleveland - August 16, 1909, Bronxville, New York) was an American artist; primarily known for his etchings and illustrations. He also painted oils in a variety of genres.
