Theodore Roussel's "Chelsea Embankment, June, 5 p.m." is a black and white etching depicting a view of the embankment in London. Created in 1889, the print showcases Roussel's masterful use of line to capture the details of the scene, including the silhouette of a tree, a fence, and figures gathered in the foreground. The etching, now held in the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago, provides a glimpse into the daily life of London in the late 19th century.
