Honfleur Le Vieux, "Leurs Maisons" 1912

"Honfleur Le Vieux, "Leurs Maisons" (1912) is a pencil drawing by French artist Fernand Combes, depicting a narrow street in the historic town of Honfleur. The drawing captures the architectural details of the old houses, their wooden facades and sloping roofs, with a focus on the building at the right corner. The artist’s meticulous detail and realistic style is evident in the depiction of the street scene, including the figures walking along the cobbled path, making the drawing feel almost photographic. Combes, known for his cityscape works, uses the medium of pencil to depict the charming atmosphere of Honfleur.
