This sketch shows a large, three-story house with a steep roof and many windows. The walls are made of light-colored blocks, and the front door sits at the top of a short set of stairs. Trees and bushes surround the building, and a low fence runs along the front. The whole scene is drawn in simple lines with no color. The handwriting at the top names the house as belonging to someone called Richard Dann. It was made around 1810, and the artist’s name isn’t known.
