Architectural drawing

About this work

This sketch shows a tall, pointy building with lots of small windows and spires. The lines are light and shaky, like it was drawn fast. You can see arches, statues, and a mix of flat and rounded shapes stacked up high. The artist focused on how light hits the building’s details. The date on the paper says June 15, 1886. Look up cross-hatching to see how artists use lines to make shadows.
