Charcoal Boat, Venice 1877

"Charcoal Boat, Venice" is a pen and ink drawing on paper by American artist Andrew Fisher Bunner, created in 1877. The drawing depicts a detailed view of a boat docked in Venice, Italy. Bunner's precise lines and shading create a realistic depiction of the boat's wooden structure, rigging, and the surrounding water. The work exemplifies the artist's meticulous style and keen observation of the natural world, which made him a prominent figure in the American art scene of the late 19th century. The drawing is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
