This sketch shows a tall stone cross with a simple, worn look. The top has a rough carving of a face, and the shaft is split into three sections with faded carvings—one looks like a small window with a face inside. The colors are muted, mostly gray and brown, with some greenish patches where the stone seems to be weathered. The artist focused on texture, making the stone look rough and aged. The sketch feels like a quick study, not a polished drawing. Next, check out The Dowager Lady Nicholson to see more of her work.
