This sketch shows a quiet mountain landscape with rolling hills and winding paths. The artist used light pencil strokes to draw the land, leaving some areas faint and others darker. Trees and small buildings dot the scene, but the focus stays on the natural shapes of the hills. The loose, sketchy lines suggest the artist was working quickly, maybe outdoors. The paper looks worn, like it’s been handled a lot. If you like this style, check out Impressionism.
