Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white etching of a cityscape by Camille Pissarro titled "View of Rouen". The scene shows a river with a bridge on the left side and a city skyline in the background. A man and a dog are standing on a path along the riverbank on the left. The sky is cloudy and dark. The city skyline includes several buildings and a prominent church or cathedral with a tall spire. The image is rendered in a range of grays, with darker areas indicating shadow and lighter areas indicating highlights. The artwork is signed and numbered in the bottom right corner.
