This drawing is an example of the technical virtuosity of Knighton-Hammond’s draughtsmanship. Superb architectural detailing, fine linear perspective and he uses the amount of graphite on the paper to illustrate light and shadow. Even the lamp post add much to the composition. The busy figures and the horses and carts give a sense of scale and spontaneity.
