About this work

This watercolor shows an old brick building with tall chimneys and a mix of arched and straight windows. The walls look worn, and the roof has patches of moss or weathering. In front, there’s a narrow path lined with bushes and trees, leading to a body of water on the left side. The artist used soft, watery strokes to show light hitting the building’s rough surface. The colors are muted—browns, grays, and greens—with just a hint of blue in the water. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more of this artist’s delicate sketches.
