About this work

This is a precise black-and-white drawing of a large, symmetrical building. The front shows rows of evenly spaced windows and arches, with a tall central tower topped by a spire. The lines are clean and measured, with some shading to show depth. The title says it’s a sketch of the Alcázar of Toledo, a palace in Spain. Bolton drew it in 1893, using careful lines to capture the structure’s details. Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more of Bolton’s work.
