About this work

George Chinnery drew this in 1839. It’s a sheet of two things: one long sketch of a boatwoman rowing, and quick little figures holding parasols. That boatwoman isn’t just a shape. The museum notes show inked-in details of her hands gripping the oar handle. The parasols are scribbled in fast strokes, almost like he was working fast. Look up George Chinnery next.
