  1. The image shows a scene from a slightly elevated point of view. The horizon is low, highlighting the vast sky above. On the right, there are buildings surrounded by trees. In the center, there is a tall monument with a small structure at its base, slightly to the left. To the right of the monument, a person is standing. The drawing features detailed linework and delicate shading for the sky. The color palette is monochromatic with shades of gray. Rocks and grass in the foreground lead towards the monument and buildings in the distance.

  2. This painting shows a winter landscape with snowy, rural terrain. It includes a large barn, a farmhouse, and some bare trees covered in snow. Some brown cows are fenced in by the barn on the left, and a person walking along a snowy path brings them a bundle of golden hay. The sky is overcast, with dark gray clouds, and the color palette of the painting consists of earth tones with variations of grey and brown among the white snow.
