Cathedral, pencil drawing by Solon H. Borglum

Pencil drawing on yellowed paper showing the upper part of a Gothic cathedral, with pointed arches, a large tracery window, and slender pinnacles rising above a row of lower arched bays. Loose, sketchy shading suggests stone masonry and shadowed vaults, while a faint signature appears in the lower corner of the sheet.
