About this work

Overview

The Plan is a print by Paul Rajon, created in 1870, and is part of the collection at The Cleveland Museum of Art.

Subject & Meaning

The print depicts two men navigating a narrow, muddy street flanked by tall trees. One figure, dressed in light attire and aided by a cane, is guided by the other, who wears a dark coat and offers support.

Technique & Style

Rajon employed rapid, irregular strokes to convey a sense of movement and texture, particularly in the rendering of clothing and the ground, exemplifying a style characteristic of late 19th-century prints that captured everyday scenes.
