Five Pound Island c. early 20th century

"Five Pound Island" is an etching by American artist Percy F. Albee, created in the early 20th century. The print depicts a tranquil landscape, featuring a cluster of simple buildings nestled on a small island, with a body of water extending to the horizon. The scene is rendered in a minimalist style, emphasizing the subtle textures of the water and the buildings. The artwork's delicate lines and soft tones evoke a sense of peace and solitude, characteristic of Albee's maritime landscapes.
