The Farm Yard

William Strang

National Gallery of Art

The image displays a rural scene with architectural and pastoral elements. The horizon shows dark buildings and a castle on a hill, separating the built environment from the sky. The etching style creates texture on the structures. A person is depicted working on the ground. The color palette is monochromatic, with sepia tones and black. The sky features light cloud forms.
