Doorway of an Ancient Convent in the Rue Mirabeau, Bourges

Charles Meryon

Cleveland Museum of Art

A doorway in a stone building with an ornate archway over it. The doorway is dark and appears to lead into a shadowy interior. There are three steps leading up to the doorway. The building has a window to the left of the doorway and a large wooden door to the right. The doorway and window have stone carvings and molding around them. The artist's signature is in the bottom-left corner. The image is in shades of gray and brown, with darker shading used to create depth and dimension. The image appears to be an etching or engraving.
