Description de l’image
The image shows a rough pencil drawing on a paper with two landscape sketches on it. In one sketch, the horizon is high in the frame showing hills or low mountains and cloud-like shapes. The other sketch has a simpler horizon with jagged peaks, possibly representing mountains or trees, against a more expansive area. The pencil work is light and sketchy, with minimal lines. The color palette is monochromatic, in graphite-gray on tan paper.
