Technique and condition
Double-sided watercolour sketch on an off-white, medium weight, rag, wove paper in good condition. The watercolour washes in black, yellow and blue have been applied in loose, fluid brush strokes.
Both scenes appear to depict water with a landmass in the distance under a blue-black sky.
