About the Item
"English Country Fisherman by the Cottage" is an original etching by John Thomas Smith. The miniature etching features a country cottage with a thatched roof next to a river in the background. Trees encircle the cottage from the front and behind, though a small work yard has been cleared. The fisherman sits, perched on a barrel with his back to the viewer, fishing pole hanging out over the water. The sky is clear, lending the scene a peaceful atmosphere.
