Landscape with Hay Wagon is a 1875 ink by Charles Volkmar, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This print shows a quiet, misty landscape with a pond in the foreground. Tall trees with thin trunks line the shore, and their branches twist toward the sky. The water has lily pads and ripples, while a distant hill fades into soft gray tones. The artist used fine lines and shading to create depth, focusing on nature’s details. This is an etching, a method where ink is scraped into a metal plate to print the image. Look up etching to see how artists like this one make prints.
Charles Volkmar (1841–1914) was an American artist, born in Baltimore.
