Interior of an Inn 1861 - 1862

"Interior of an Inn" is a black and white etching by Charles François Daubigny, created between 1861 and 1862, now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. The artwork depicts a dimly lit interior space, likely an inn, with a single light source emanating from a window or doorway. The etching's dark tones and subtle lines capture the atmosphere of a quiet, intimate setting, characteristic of Daubigny's approach to depicting everyday scenes and the play of light. The artist is known for his landscapes, but this artwork demonstrates his ability to evoke atmosphere and mood within a confined space.
