About this work

This sketch shows a rocky hillside with a small waterfall cascading down. At the top, two people stand near a large, round building with columns, while another person sits alone on a bench below, facing the water. The scene is soft and warm, with light green trees and a pale sky. The artist used quick, loose strokes to suggest texture—notice how the water and rocks look slightly rough, but the trees are just hints of green. The two standing figures seem to be looking at the building, while the person on the bench faces the waterfall, almost as if lost in thought. Want to see more works by Roschankowsky, Paul?
