Siena Brickwork

John Russell Pope

National Gallery of Art

This is a very faint drawing of an architectural building facade. It features detailed brickwork patterns, ornate cornices, and decorative arches over windows and doors. The lower level includes a main entrance door and a window framed with brickwork. The left side of the drawing is more detailed, while the right side of the drawing fades into faint lines that are hard to distinguish against the paper. On the right and near the bottom-right corner, there are notes with measurements and references to materials or techniques."
