About this work

This etching shows a small thatched cottage half hidden by dense foliage and tall flowering stalks, with two figures seated in the foreground near a low wall. It is an engraving from Remarks on rural scenery (1797) by John Thomas Smith, a work of twenty etchings of cottages drawn from nature. The image is typical of the picturesque manner the book promotes.
