About this work

This drawing shows a simple highway scene. It's just a pencil sketch on paper. The interesting thing about this work is that Christo was known for his large-scale installations, but this is a small, quiet piece. He often worked with his wife, Jeanne-Claude, on big projects. They would wrap buildings or create huge sculptures in the environment. This small drawing is a contrast to their large-scale work. You can learn more about this style by looking into the technique of cross-hatching.
