The Rising Moon by Samuel Palmer: A black-and-white etching depicting a rural landscape at dusk. A full moon rises behind hills and trees. In the foreground, hay bales lie on the ground. A wooden wheelbarrow with hay rests on the right. Trees and bushes are scattered throughout the scene. A building with a dark roof and chimney is on the left. The sky is cloudy with shades of gray. The artist's signature appears twice at the bottom.
