About this work

Overview

Ebury Street is a drawing executed in 1876 by French artist Félix‑Hilaire Buhot. Rendered on wove paper, the composition combines black conté crayon, pen work, and brown ink, reflecting the artist’s interest in varied line qualities and tonal contrasts.

Technique & Style

The piece employs the dense, velvety strokes of conté crayon alongside precise pen lines, while brown ink adds depth and shading. This mixed-media approach highlights Buhot’s experimental handling of drawing materials, emphasizing texture and the interplay of light and shadow typical of his late‑nineteenth‑century practice.
