Main Street, Gloucester
1930

A detailed black and white etching depicting a bustling street scene in what appears to be an early 20th-century American town. The view shows a main street lined with two- and three-story buildings, including a prominent clock tower in the distance. Pedestrians stroll along the sidewalks, and vintage automobiles are parked and driving on the street, which has tram tracks embedded in its surface. Leafy trees overhang parts of the scene, adding a sense of tranquility to the otherwise active setting. The artist's signature is visible in the lower right corner.
