1901

From the collection of Victoria and Albert Museum

About this work

This sketch shows a rough, uneven landscape with crumbling stone walls and a tall, broken tower. The ground is patchy with grass and rocks, and a small body of water sits near the center. The lines are quick and shaky, like the artist was drawing fast or on the move. The tower looks like it’s part of an old church, maybe fallen apart over time. The notes on the paper say it’s from 1901, drawn by someone named Fulleylove. Next, check out cross-hatching to see how artists build shadows with lines.
