House by a River
1919

A detailed black and white etching of a three-story house with a gabled roof and a prominent chimney, partially obscured by a leafless tree. A figure stands by the front door, and a wooden fence runs along the side of the house, with a rocky hill in the background. The etching is centered on a piece of textured paper with rough edges.
