This sketch shows a tall, worn brick house with three floors of arched windows. Two small figures stand at the front door, talking. The building looks old, with peeling paint and a sagging roof. A tree leans in from the left side, and a streetlamp hangs near the entrance. The artist signed it in the corner with the year 1942. The label says it’s in Bridgwater, but the scene feels quiet and forgotten. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see this watercolor in person.
