Franz Johann Heinrich Nadorp

Cleveland Museum of Art

A sketch of a fountain with four male figures. The four figures are standing on a pile of rocks. Two of the figures are holding a bowl-like structure over their heads. The figure on the left appears to be pouring water from the bowl. The figure on the right appears to be holding a bunch of leaves or branches. The base of the pile of rocks appears to be sitting on top of a short wall with domed tops. The sketch is drawn on aged paper with a dark brown border around the edges. The sketch is drawn in pencil.
