This sketch shows a quiet harbor scene with three ships anchored near the shore. The water is full of tiny, fast lines—like quick strokes—while the boats and masts stand out as darker shapes. The land in the background is faint, almost erased, with just a few buildings or trees barely visible. The title, *Oyster Grounds*, hints this might be a spot where oysters were gathered. The loose, sketchy style suggests the artist worked fast, maybe capturing light or movement. Check out The Cleveland Museum of Art to see this drawing in person.
