This watercolor shows a quiet street corner with two old buildings. One has a balcony with ornate railings and arched windows, while the other has a small green-roofed extension jutting out. A woman in a dark coat walks a small dog down the pavement, and a few trees add a touch of green to the scene. The artist used loose, sketchy lines to capture the buildings’ details without making them too precise. The colors are soft—mostly pale blues, greens, and beiges—giving it a gentle, old-fashioned feel. Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more of this artist’s work.
