"Greenwich Park, No. 2" is an etching by American artist Joseph Pennell, created in 1906. The artwork depicts a panoramic view of Greenwich Park in London, showcasing the park's expansive green space, the Royal Observatory, and the River Thames in the distance. Pennell's use of subtle shading and detailed lines captures the park's serene atmosphere and the grandeur of the observatory, a symbol of London's scientific and historical significance. The etching is a testament to Pennell's mastery of the printmaking technique and his keen eye for capturing the beauty of urban landscapes. The artwork is currently held in the collection of The Art Institute of Chicago.
