1879
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
Worth: A Lane is a 1879 by Otto Henry Bacher, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows a quiet village scene with old wooden houses and a church tower in the background. The buildings have steep roofs, some with thatch, and one has a chimney. A small stream runs in front, and a few trees and clotheslines are scattered around. The drawing is loose and sketchy, focusing on shapes and light rather than detail. It feels like a quick study of everyday life, not a polished final work. Next, check out Realism to see how artists captured ordinary scenes like this one.
