An Old Courtyard (New Orleans)

Charles Henry White

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of an architectural courtyard scene. The courtyard has various structural elements including a wooden balcony with a lattice design on the left, stairs leading up to it, a large window on the right showing an interior space, and a partially open door below the window. In the foreground, there is a wooden table with containers. The scene suggests everyday life in a historical or old-world environment.
