Series Six, Drawing Six

From the Jardin de l’Infante
We are looking up at the Salle du Sept Cheminées. The interior of the room is badly scorched by the fire. Sections of parquet hang from the broken edge of the floor. In the far wall, the very top of the gallery’s entrance door is barely visible above the broken floor. At the bottom of the drawing, the vaulted arches of the Salle du Melpomène are just visible in the rubble.
