Light Through the Trees, Walter Meigs, watercolor
This black and white photograph shows a partial view of an airshaft of a brick building. The image looks down into the airshaft, where mechanical equipment, a vertical pipe, and two lines hung with laundry can be seen. The floor of the airshaft is littered with garbage. A shadow runs across the scene.
La Vieille aux Loques, James Abbott McNeill Whistler, etching
This etching is created with black ink on paper. It represents a row of houses along a street. There is a tree immediately in front of the house in the foreground. Leaning on that tree is a collapsing fence, also in front of the house. Beyond the fence is a sidewalk and then a street. Three people are walking in the street. Near the figures is a prominently placed power pole. Houses perched on hills extend down the street, receding into the background. Behind the houses is a large hill or slag pile.
