  1. The image shows an elevated view of a landscape with detailed line work in warm sepia tones. The horizon is located near the top, with a cluster of structures visible in the distance. Close to us, there is textured shrubbery, and the ground is marked with dots and lines. Rolling hills and flat areas lead towards the horizon, where the sky is depicted with horizontal lines and hatchings.

  2. 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.
