Doorway c. 1936

Jerome Hoxie’s "Doorway", created around 1936, is a detailed pencil drawing that focuses on a single doorway of a house. The artist uses precise lines and shading to depict the wooden door with its intricate carvings and a small window pane above it. The door is framed by the equally detailed architecture of the entryway, including the surrounding columns and a larger transom window composed of many smaller panes. The drawing’s high level of detail, particularly the visible scale in the bottom right corner, suggests this may have been a design plan rather than a purely aesthetic artwork.
