Virginia Berresford

Artist, American, 1904 - 1995

The artwork depicts architectural structures from an elevated point of view, showing multiple angles of the buildings. The horizon is indistinct, blending into the sky. The buildings lead the eye inward, with one central construction featuring a detailed stairway. The technique uses sketch-like brushstrokes to create texture and depth. The color palette is monochromatic, with shades of gray against a pale background, emphasizing form and structure.
