From the collection of Victoria and Albert Museum
Two figures seated on a pair of steps is a 1 by George Chinnery, a Romanticism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
George Chinnery made this ink drawing in 1834. It shows two men sitting on wide steps. One man stretches his legs out. Between them are little stones or coins. The artist added a quick pencil sketch of one figure on the side. He liked to work like this, mixing ink with light pencil lines. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum next.
Two men are shown seated on broad steps in an ink drawing, one with legs extended and pebbles or coins placed between them. To the right, a pencil sketch depicts one of the figures. The work is part of an album of 406 drawings made in Macau, Guangzhou, and Bengal, bequeathed in 1928 as part of a collection of 93 drawings by George Chinnery.
