About this work

This sketch shows a simple line drawing of a building’s corner, with two small towers on top. Below it, there’s handwritten text in messy script, describing the building’s details. The drawing is faint, almost like a quick note more than a finished piece. The writing mentions "colours" that were meant to fill in the design but weren’t. The date "1910" and the name "Abbey Door" are scribbled at the bottom, hinting this was a rough draft or a personal sketch. If you like quick, unfinished sketches, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum for more like this.
