View of Bath 1916

"View of Bath" is a 1916 pencil drawing by Muirhead Bone, a Scottish artist known for his cityscapes and landscapes. This drawing depicts a panoramic view of Bath, England, from a high vantage point. The artist's meticulous lines capture the rolling hills, the meandering River Avon, and the city's rooftops in a delicate, almost ethereal, manner. The vastness of the sky, suggested by the empty space at the top of the composition, creates a sense of tranquility and serenity. This drawing demonstrates Bone's signature style of using precise lines to create a sense of depth and atmosphere, characteristic of his work in the early 20th century.
