About the Item

Libby Bothway's drawing of Chateau de Fourcés in Gascony, France, uses meticulously detailed pen and ink. The Chateau, with its textured stonework and varying shades, exudes an aura of historical grandeur. Each stone is distinct, capturing the intricacies of age and weathering. The tall, narrow windows with their small panes contribute to the Chateau's timeless elegance. A robust stone wall, topped with a wrought-iron gate, adds a layer of mystery and seclusion. The slender cypress trees flanking the entrance provide a touch of natural symmetry, enhancing the composition's vertical lines. This artwork stands out for its precision and depth, with skilled line work that brings every element to life. Its attention to architectural detail is remarkable, inviting viewers to explore the beauty of its craftsmanship and the stories embedded in its ancient walls. Libby Bothway uses black ink on paper to depict urban landscapes inspired by travels across Europe and the UK. Her appreciation for the beauty inherent in French and Spanish architecture produces charming works  that highlight and add texture to the intricate details found in old windows, doors, and balconies. Her style celebrates imperfections and reveals a genuine love for buildings with character, especially those adorned with exposed bricks.
