Charles François Daubigny

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white drawing of a train traveling on train tracks next to a body of water. The train is on the right side, moving to the left. It has one visible car with people visible through the windows. The train car is rectangular with a flat roof and dark-colored undercarriage. Dark smoke billows from the top of the train. Three sets of tracks are visible on the ground beneath the train. The body of water is on the left with boats in the distance. A sloped hill on the left leads to a distant shoreline. The sky above is filled with birds and clouds. The entire image is surrounded by a white border with a textured surface. The artist's signature is in the bottom-left and another signature is in the bottom-right.
