People, puddles shamels, Shambles, York (WiP 4)
Continuing on with the drawing of the York Ghost Merchants shop in Shambles , adding some people and a puddle. The puddle in particular is testing my technique with pencil, blending stump and eraser. The people are passing the former window opening of a butcher's shop which has a shame, or shelf, used for displaying goods from medieval times but particularly associated with butcher's shops as they continued in use into the 20th century until refrigeration became widely available.
