About this work

This sketch shows a row of old buildings with steep roofs and tall windows, drawn in soft browns and grays. A gate stands open in the center, with a person and a dog walking toward it. The street is empty, and trees line the sidewalk, their branches bare. The artist focused on simple lines and shading to show depth, not bright colors. The paper looks worn, like a quick study. Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
