Ann overgrown tomb in Bengal is a 16 by George Chinnery, a Romanticism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
You see an old, overgrown tomb in a landscape. This drawing shows a lot of detail, with scratches and marks that look like they were made to fix mistakes. The artist used scratching-out to change the drawing, which is interesting because it shows how they worked. Look up the technique of cross-hatching to learn more about how artists like this one created shading and texture in their work.
