1879
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
The Lock, Schleissheim is a 1879 by Otto Henry Bacher, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting shows a weathered wooden gate in a garden. The gate is made of rough-hewn planks, with a large lock and chain hanging from it. In the background, a tree with sparse branches and leaves rises above the gate, set against a light-colored sky. The overall atmosphere is one of quietness and stillness. The gate appears to be old and worn, with visible signs of decay. The lock and chain add a sense of security and protection to the scene. The tree in the background adds a touch of natural beauty to the painting. The painting is an example of Impressionism and Realism.
