About this drawing

A pavilion hidden inside a grove: the drawing was made over several mornings, following the movement of light through the trees.

The pavilion is almost swallowed by the trees. I drew it in the early morning, when the stone was still cool and the peacocks walked through the empty arcades. The drawing records not only the building but the way the grove holds it.
