Sunset at Menemsha
1933

This is a black and white etching depicting a tranquil landscape scene titled "Sunset at Memensha." The foreground features a small, dark building with a pitched roof next to a body of water, with a fence and a rowboat nearby. Gentle hills rise in the middle ground, while the background shows a dramatic sky filled with clouds reflecting the light of the setting sun over the water. The artist's signature and the date 1933 are visible in the lower right corner, and the print is numbered 7/100 in the lower left corner.
