Egham Lock

Francis Seymour Haden

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a black and white sketch of a river with two wooden structures on either side, likely a lock. The river is in the center, with dark water reflecting the surrounding environment. The left structure has a ramp leading down to the water, while the right structure appears to be a gate or barrier. Both structures have railings and appear to be made of wood. On the left side of the river, there are trees and bushes along the bank, as well as a fence running along the edge. On the right side, there is a grassy hill with more trees and bushes. In the background, there are additional trees and what appears to be a house or building. The sky above is light-colored, with some darker lines suggesting clouds or shading. The overall atmosphere of the image is serene and peaceful, with the still water and lush vegetation creating a sense of calm. The image is signed "Egham Lock Seymour Haden" in the bottom-left corner.
