Forty-second Street NY

William Walcot

Cleveland Museum of Art

Forty-second Street NY by William Walcot. Sepia-toned sketch of a city street scene. A wide street with people walking on the sidewalk and cars and a horse-drawn vehicle on the road. The street is lined with tall buildings on both sides. A large sign reading 'Sir Henry Lytton' hangs on one of the buildings. Trees without leaves are on the left side of the street. A church or cathedral tower rises in the background. The image is rendered in pencil or charcoal with a range of shading and texture. The artist's signature is visible in the bottom-right corner.
