This sketch shows a quiet garden with two large stone urns spilling water into a shallow pool. A big tree stands behind them, its branches spreading wide. In the distance, a fence lines a path, and rolling hills fade into a pale sky. The artist used quick, loose brushstrokes to capture light and movement, almost like a quick sketch. The colors are soft—greens, blues, and earthy tones—with just a hint of red flowers near the bottom. Look up William Callow to see more of his sketches.
