Lyrical Antique Graphite Drawing of Two Geometric Volumes wooden blocks pattern play with those very very thin

with those very very thin front legs

and very fast if you do it right

I was struck by the terrific delicacy of this original engraving from 1814

and the combination of form and text here is

11 3/4" long x 7 1/4" wide (at wheels)

Lyrical Antique Graphite Drawing of Two Geometric Volumes wooden blocks pattern play with those very very thinI find this graphite drawing quite beautiful, especially for the subtle wavering of the lines, appearing to have been drawn freehand rather than with a ruler. Which makes it feel quite expressive, and lyrical, and alive. Lovely. 11 1 4" x 8 3 4" and in very good condition, c. 1900 or so, I believe. A little loss irregularity to the upper right edge of paper.
