Sketch of House and Canal (Possibly in Venice) 1841 - 1897

Andrew Fisher Bunner's "Sketch of House and Canal (Possibly in Venice)" is a delicate pen and ink drawing that captures the atmosphere of a quaint canal scene. The artist, known for his architectural sketches, masterfully renders the details of the building, its thatched roof, and the surrounding foliage. The presence of a figure in the foreground adds a touch of human scale to the composition. This evocative sketch, housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, invites viewers to imagine the daily life unfolding along the canal in Venice, though the subject is not confirmed.
