Whistler, a renowned American artist and etcher, masterfully captures the essence of tonalism in this hauntingly beautiful piece. The scene depicts a furnace at nightfall, its fiery glow illuminating the surrounding darkness. Through delicate etching techniques, Whistler creates an ethereal atmosphere that is both mysterious and evocative. The play of light and shadow adds depth to the composition, highlighting the intricate details of the furnace's structure.
