A Country Path , c. 1910
19 x 15.3 in (h x w)
Monotype

In this one-of-a-kind print, the tonalist landscape artist Charles Warren Eaton embraces the sense of immediacy and looseness made possible through the monotype print process. A monotype is a unique print created by applying paint or printer’s ink in a desired composition onto the surface of a matrix—usually a glass or metal plate—and then transferring the painterly image to paper by contact pressure, either mechanically by running it through a press or manually by rubbing it with the back of a hand or spoon. Rather than achieving crisp details or linear clarity, Eaton utilizes the monotype process to construct a moody landscape that we might imagine encountering on a walk in the countryside. (AW)
