Carriage Lanterns In The Dark

2016-01-05lantern1There is an exhibition of carriages and sleighs at our Musee de la Civilisation and it’s about to end.  We’ve drawn of it in the past but the room is so poorly lit that it’s hard to see what you’re drawing.

But Yvan and I decided to brave the dark a bit more and to draw some of the carriage lanterns before they were pulled from their dark places and sent back to the well-lit storage barn where they are stored.

These are fun to draw because of their complex shapes but I can’t guarantee that my sketches are correct.  Often I couldn’t tell whether something is square or round because the room was so dark, so these are more a guess than anything.
