This sketch shows a busy crowd of people in fancy clothes. Some stand close, others lean in to talk. Up high, a few figures float near a building with columns. The lines are loose and quick, like a rough draft. Notice how the artist used light shading to show faces and folds in clothes. It’s not super detailed—just enough to tell the story.
