On the Lagoons, Venice. is a 29 by Haite, a Impressionism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This sketch shows a small sailboat on calm water, with a tall mast and a single sail. The shore is faintly drawn with a few dark lines, and the sky is barely there—just a few light strokes. The whole thing looks quick and rough, like it was done in a hurry. The artist used thin, scratchy lines to build up the shapes, almost like tiny shadows. It’s not super detailed, which makes it feel more like a quick note than a finished picture. If you like this loose, sketchy style, look up cross-hatching.
