Tristan and Isolde, Act II: Signal in the Night

Henri Fantin-Latour

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a black and white drawing of a man standing on a hill. The man is wearing a long robe and has both arms raised above his head, with both hands clutching what appears to be a cloth. The background of the drawing shows a dark landscape with a body of water and some foliage to the right and on the left. The drawing is on a large, light-colored paper that has a textured surface and some small spots and marks. The drawing takes up a small portion of the paper, with a large border around it. There is writing at the bottom left of the paper, but it is difficult to make out.
