The Old Mulford House 1926

"The Old Mulford House" is a 1926 etching by Childe Hassam, a prominent American Impressionist painter. This work depicts a simple farmhouse with a shingled roof, surrounded by trees and a grassy yard. Hassam's meticulous technique and masterful use of light and shadow create a sense of tranquility and evoke the quiet beauty of rural America. The composition is balanced and harmonious, typical of Hassam's style, and the print captures the essence of a peaceful countryside scene, typical of Hassam's later works which focused on his summers in New Hampshire.
