"The Old Mill" is a 1904 mezzotint by Alfred J. Skrimshire. The print depicts the cover of a publication for a print of the same name. "The Old Mill" is an example of mezzotint, an intaglio printmaking technique that uses a rocker to create a smooth surface on the plate, before scraping away areas to create tones and values. The print is a record of the publication and its creation. The signature on the bottom right corner indicates the print was made by the artist himself in 1904.
