Urban Sketchers Chennai met yesterday morning to sketch at the junction of Woods Road and Anna Salai. I could not attend, but I had time to kill yesterday afternoon, and therefore decided to sketch Gove Building (which houses the Mercedes-Benz showroom) and is located at this junction, from a photograph posted on Facebook
n the Urban Sketchers Chennai group.
This heritage building was designed by J. H. Stephens of the Madras PWD, built in 1916, and was originally called the Cuddon Building. Its name was changed to Gove Building when VST Motors bought the building in 1943.
My pen and ink sketch is 15 cms x 20 cms and was done with a flex nib pen.
