A Long Island Windmill

Childe Hassam

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a rural landscape with a stone windmill, a church spire in the distance, foliage, and a path. The drawing uses fine lines characteristic of an etching style. The color palette is minimal, relying on light and shadow for depth. Fields and buildings can be seen extending towards distant hills.
