About this work

This watercolor shows an old, crooked house with a sagging roof and exposed wooden beams. The walls are made of rough stone, and the windows are small with diamond-shaped panes. A narrow street runs in front, with another simple building and a tree on the right edge. The artist signed it in the corner, and the label calls it *Anne of Cleves House*. The sketch looks quick and rough, like a study rather than a finished work. Next, check out Charles Knight for more of his sketchy landscapes.
