"The Three Towers" is an etching by American artist Joseph Pennell, completed in 1921. This print, currently housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, depicts a cityscape with three prominent towers, likely in New York City. Pennell was known for his detailed and expressive etchings capturing the dynamism of urban life. The work showcases his use of line and shading to create a sense of depth and detail in the buildings, while the boats in the foreground further contribute to the scene's sense of movement and scale.
