A pencil drawing showing two male figures in classical dress. The two youths are shown standing on the bank of a river or stream, with one grasping at a lamp in the water. Rocks are shown in the foreground to the right, with hills shown in the distance. A single-line border is shown around the mounted sheet.

Princess Victoria, later Queen Victoria, received her first drawing lesson from the artist Richard Westall in 1827, when she was eight years old. She started by copying Westall’s drawings of horses, hands and eyes and later copied some of his finished studies, all produced for this purpose and housed in two albums. For other items in this album see Westall Sketches Volume 1.
