This sketch shows the inside of an old church. The walls are rough stone, and tall wooden pews line the sides. A stained-glass window glows faintly in the back, and two hanging lamps dangle from chains. The artist used quick, loose strokes—some lines are dark, others barely there. The drawing focuses on the church’s simple, worn details. The artist signed it "Denston Church" in the corner, so this is likely a real place they visited. Look up Cowern next to see more of their sketches.
