Pesto n.d.

"Pesto" is a pencil drawing by William Leighton Leitch, a prominent 19th-century landscape artist. The artwork depicts a scenic vista with a prominent mountain range in the background, a plain in the middle ground, and a cluster of trees and stones in the foreground. The simplified style of the drawing highlights the vast expanse of the landscape and the artist’s keen observation of nature. The composition, with its emphasis on horizontal lines, creates a sense of tranquility and harmony, characteristic of the artist's Romanticism-inspired work.
