1879
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
Lustheim is a 1879 by Otto Henry Bacher, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows a quiet riverside scene with a small house and bridge. The house has a thatched roof, a porch with two figures, and a chimney puffing smoke. A duck floats in the water below, and trees line the background. The artist used loose, sketchy lines to suggest light and shadow. The date "June 28 '79" is written in the corner, hinting at a summer moment. The style mixes quick brushstrokes with careful details, like the bridge’s texture.
