1879
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
Unter Schleissheim is a 1879 by Otto Henry Bacher, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows a quiet countryside scene with a thatched-roof farmhouse and a few trees. The ground is rough and uneven, with patches of grass and dirt. The sky is lightly drawn with wispy clouds, and the whole image feels loose and quick, like a quick pencil study. The artist signed it "Unter Schleissheim," which might be the name of the place. The lines are simple but capture how light falls over the landscape. If you like this sketchy, fast style, look up Realism next.
