Dordrecht

John Henry Twachtman

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a black and white sketch of a harbor scene. The scene is drawn on a light-brown background and bordered by a darker brown line. A body of water occupies the lower half of the image, with darker shading suggesting ripples or reflections on its surface. In the foreground on the right, two poles extend from the bottom edge into the water. On the left side, a small section of land with grass and trees leads to a short wall or dock. In the background, several windmills and a few sailboats are visible. The windmills have tall, slender structures with roofs and blades. The sailboats have triangular sails. The sky above is filled with variously shaped clouds. The image represents "Dordrecht" by John Henry Twachtman.
