About this work

This etching shows a thatched cottage half hidden among trees, with a lattice fence and a dense bank of foliage in the foreground. The rendering uses strong contrasts of dark masses and light sky, typical of the picturesque manner. The image comes from Remarks on Rural Scenery by John Thomas Smith, published in 1797.
