Charles Burchfield

The Haymow
1924

A black and white etching depicting a rustic street scene with a horse-drawn cart loaded with hay, a few ducks in the foreground, and tall, slender trees lining the background. The architecture suggests an older village setting with wooden buildings and a cobblestone street. There are handwritten notes and signatures at the bottom of the print.
