This is a watercolor drawing of a stone tomb inside a church. The tomb shows a carved figure lying down in armor, with detailed carvings of people and shields on its sides. Behind it, a tall window with diamond-shaped glass lets in light, and the walls are plain stone. The tomb looks old and worn, with shadows making the carvings stand out. The artist used light to show the textures of the stone and metal. Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more of this artist’s work.
