Train and Bathers
1920

A black and white etching depicting a steam locomotive crossing over a bridge to the right, with billowing smoke trailing behind it. In the foreground, two figures, one standing and one sitting, appear to be observing the train amidst a dense thicket of bushes and trees. The scene conveys a contrast between the industrial machine and the natural environment.
