Looking up the Cut from Bas Obispo is a 1912 ink by Joseph Pennell, held at National Gallery of Art.
The painting depicts a landscape with a train track running through a valley, surrounded by hills and trees. The scene is rendered in shades of gray, with the train tracks and surrounding terrain visible in the foreground. In the distance, the hills rise up, covered in trees and foliage. The overall effect is one of depth and perspective, with the viewer's eye drawn into the scene. This lithograph is a great example of Joseph Pennell's work, and you can see more of his pieces at the National Gallery of Art, Washington.
Joseph Pennell (July 4, 1857 – April 23, 1926) was an American draftsman, etcher, lithographer, and illustrator for books and magazines.
