Seven Towers (from Sketchbook)

Mary Newbold Sargent

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white pencil drawing of a large castle with seven towers, trees to left and right, and a hillside with a cave in the foreground. The image is titled at the bottom. The image depicts a sketch of a large stone building with flat topped towers rising from the center and sides. The flat tops have parapets and crenellations, and a wall runs horizontally behind the building. There are trees on either side, one on the left with leaves drawn in short curved lines and tall skinny one on the right. The hillside and cave opening are in the bottom right corner. The image background is white.
