My Farm
1857
"My Farm" is a drypoint print by French artist Alphonse Legros that depicts a rural agricultural scene rendered in the artist's characteristic linear style. The medium of drypoint allowed Legros to create fine, expressive lines directly into a copper plate, producing the soft, velvety blacks characteristic of the technique. The work reflects Legros's interest in rural life and labor, themes he explored throughout his career as a printmaker and painter.
