The Waterhouse

Wenceslaus Hollar

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Waterhouse by Wenceslaus Hollar: A black and white etching of a landscape with a body of water, a large building on the left with a peaked roof and chimney, and a stone wall along the water's edge. A person wearing a hat is standing on the right side of the water with a fishing rod. A city skyline with several buildings and a church steeple is visible in the background. The image is framed by a thin black border on a beige background. The title "The Waterhouse" is written at the bottom, and the artist's signature "Wenceslaus Hollar fecit 1658" is written on the right side.
