This sketch shows a row of old brick cottages with sloped roofs and chimneys. The buildings are simple, with small windows and a mix of light and dark browns. In front, there’s a patch of grass and a few bushes, drawn in loose, quick strokes. The artist used watercolor to keep things soft and sketchy, almost like a quick note of what they saw. The buildings look worn but sturdy, with a quiet, everyday feel. Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more of their collection.
