This sketch shows a woman in a long dress stepping over a man lying on the floor. Another woman stands in the background holding a dress. The room has a fancy tent draped above, a table with teacups, and a mirror with candles. The title *The Fetch* hints at a ghostly story—this woman might be a spirit. The artist used quick, sketchy lines to show movement and drama. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more of this artist’s work.
