Rest is a 1879 by Otto Henry Bacher, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows a small wooden boat floating on calm water, surrounded by tall reeds. In the background, a thatched-roof house sits on a hill, with trees and bushes scattered around it. The whole scene is drawn in loose, quick lines—no color, just shades of gray and white. The word *"Rest"* is signed in the corner, hinting this quiet moment is the focus. The artist used simple shapes and soft edges to make it feel peaceful. Next, check out The Cleveland Museum of Art to see more works like this.
