George Chinnery sketched this drawing in 1825. It blends architecture and people in one scene. The church façade stands tall. A cross sits on stone steps below. Three figures dot a small hill. This drawing was meant to lead a set of sketches. It’s a study, not a finished work. The details mix local landmarks with human presence. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum.
