About this work

This sketch shows a corner of a building with a staircase and a balcony. The balcony has a carved railing and a flat ledge above it, with two figures standing on it. Below, a set of steps leads up to a door framed by two columns with decorative tops. The drawing is loose and sketchy, with light shading to show shadows and shapes. The artist focused on how light hits the edges and curves of the architecture. The figures on the balcony are simple, almost like quick notes rather than detailed figures. Look up cross-hatching to see how artists build up tones with lines.
