This 1816 pencil drawing by an unknown artist depicts the Abbey Gateway in Tewkesbury, England. The detailed yet delicate lines of the drawing capture the architectural details of the gateway, emphasizing its grand arched entrance, crenellated walls, and simple windows. This drawing is likely a study by an amateur artist who appreciated the historic structures of their time. The drawing is part of the collection at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
