Tower of the Chimes, Old Trinity, Cleveland is a 1887 by Otto Henry Bacher, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows a tall stone church tower with a pointed roof and arched windows. In front, a smaller building with a steep, dark roof sits beside a fence and some bare trees. The ground looks uneven, with a small patch of grass and a few bushes. The artist used quick, sketchy lines to capture light and shadows. This style was common in the late 1800s.
