Three men sit side by side on a simple bench, their backs to us. One holds a hat, another grips a walking stick. The third rests his hands in his lap. This is a quiet scene from 1869 England, drawn with a sharp pencil. Keene made it look effortless, but the lines feel alive. Look up Charles Samuel Keene (British, 1823–1891).
