About this work

An etched rural scene shows a thatched cottage with an open doorway set among trees, with a man carrying a bundle of sticks and a dog crossing the foreground. A wheelbarrow rests near a small stream, and a figure stands on a wooden footbridge at right. The print, titled Near Battle Bridge, Middlesex, was drawn and engraved by John Thomas Smith and published in London in 1797.
