Canterbury Cathedral is a 1930 by Herbert Gordon Warlow, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This drawing shows a tall, detailed cathedral with sharp spires and pointed arches. The front has three big doors, each surrounded by carvings of people. Small groups of figures stand or walk around the base, and a lone tree sits to the left. The artist used lines and shading to make the stone look rough and the sky soft. The people are tiny, so the building feels huge and imposing. Next, check out The Cleveland Museum of Art to see this work in person.
Herbert Gordon Warlow (1885–1942) was a British artist, born in Sheffield.
