Andrew Fisher Bunner

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white sketch of a canal scene. The canal is positioned centrally and runs away from the viewer, curving slightly to the right. Two small boats are in the water, one on the left and one on the right near the bottom. The buildings on either side of the canal are tall and made of stone. They have multiple windows and chimneys. The building on the left is mostly flat on top, while the building on the right has a tiled roof. There is an archway in the background on the left. The sky above is solid white.
