Tomb of Messina is a 1804 by Mary Altha Nims, a Romanticism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This drawing shows a simple, tall tower with a pointed top. Below it, there’s a small building with a cross on the roof and a fence around it. The sky is plain, with light shading to show distance. The fence has a pattern of X shapes, almost like a grid. The whole scene looks flat and clean, with no extra details. Check out The Cleveland Museum of Art to see this drawing in person.
Mary Altha Nims (1817–1907) was an American artist.
