Going to Market

Edith Penman

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a rural landscape from an elevated perspective. The horizon is in the upper part of the image, sloping with hills, trees, and a dirt road winding across the scene. A horse-drawn carriage crosses a small bridge carrying two people with an umbrella. The style resembles an engraving with intricate lines detailing trees and foliage. The color scheme is monochromatic in black, gray, and white. A house is partially hidden by trees, and one figure is walking on the road.
