The Cleveland Museum of Art

Collection Online as of June 5, 2026

A vertically oriented etching in black ink on off-white paper depicts a harbor scene. Fine horizontal hatching fills the sky with wispy clouds, mirrored in the water's vibrating lines. A dark pier supports a tall two-masted boat and a tapering wooden lighthouse. Two silhouetted figures stand near the structure. In the distance, a small sailboat drifts. Below, penciled script reads "printers process" and "etched in Cleveland."
