Night Landscape with Stream and Moon in Cloudy Sky

Pen and black ink sketch on a sketchbook page showing a dark, night-toned landscape under heavy diagonal hatched clouds. A cluster of trees stands at left beside a winding path, with a faint light band along the horizon and a small mast at right; loose scribbles fill the page margins.
