Bristol Cathedral from College Green

Engels landschap en aquarel, 1797?

The image shows a detailed drawing of a gothic-style architectural structure, possibly a cathedral. The building is positioned slightly off-center to the right and dominates the scene with intricate detailing and pointed arches. The horizon is low, where the building meets the ground. The drawing uses precise pencil strokes to outline the architecture and surrounding trees. The color palette is monochromatic, emphasizing light and shadow effects. Additional structures are subtly depicted in the background, appearing smaller as they recede. Trees border the left side of the scene.
