Bridge St. Chester n.d.

Alexander Stuart Boyd was a British artist known for his architectural drawings and watercolors, particularly of historic buildings. This detailed pencil drawing, "Bridge St. Chester," showcases Boyd's skill in capturing the intricate details of a building, perhaps an inn, with its half-timbered facade and protruding upper story. The perspective of the drawing, capturing the street level view and the building’s facade, gives the viewer a sense of immediacy and presence. This drawing, housed at The Art Institute of Chicago, is a testament to Boyd's ability to render architectural features with great precision and accuracy.
