A couple of sketches made last Saturday while waiting for my son and his girlfriend to come along for a visit at the MET. The first one was done inside the Roman and Greek Art, Gallery 162. I was fascinated by the grand size of this black stone water fountain. I added the marble sculpture sketches next. It wouldn't be complete without people admiring the beautiful sculptures so I added them as I saw fit. Strangely, most visitors do come to a similar gesture most of the time when in front of the sculptures.
Outside the museum, a long line of visitors has developed approaching a level seen in the before pandemic times. I grabbed a Sabrett HotDog and bottled water for a quick lunch while waiting for my company. They were running late. I didn't mind it because I have a sketchbook and ballpoint pen to keep me busy.
The sketch of the fountain is great especially since you included the background statue and the people admiring all that was there. I like that you found a way to capture the line of people outdoors too!
