Tour St. Antoine, Loches is a 1888 ink by James McNeill Whistler, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This etching shows a street scene with a tall tower in the background. The tower has scaffolding around it, and there are people and a horse-drawn carriage in the foreground. The buildings are close together, and the street is narrow. The artist has used strong lines and shading to create a sense of depth and texture. The etching is done in a realistic style, with attention to detail and a focus on capturing the everyday life of the scene.
