This sketch shows a busy street scene centered on a tall, ornate clock tower with a pointed roof. The tower has arched windows and a clock face near the top. Around it, people walk, some in hats, others carrying bags. Shops with signs like "Fair Grist" line the street, and buildings on either side have simple, old-style facades. The artist used loose, quick lines to capture light and shadow, giving the scene a soft, sketchy feel. The clock tower looks like a real landmark, not just decoration. Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more of this artist’s work.
