About this work

This drawing shows a dry, rocky landscape under a flat sky. In the foreground, a group of five people on horseback ride along a path, with one person sitting on the ground nearby. Behind them, a large flat-topped mountain looms, and a small town with white buildings sits in the distance. The artist used soft, watery colors to show the heat and emptiness of the land. The horses and riders look small against the vast, empty space around them. Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
