This sketch shows a simple gravestone under a bare tree. The stone has a carved top and a plaque with small, tight lettering. Around it, the ground looks rough and uneven, with scattered lines that might be grass or weeds. The tomb belongs to James McNeill Whistler, a famous artist from the 1800s. His name is carved into the stone, along with a short poem about his life. Next, check out The Cleveland Museum of Art to see this sketch in person.
