About this work
A watercolor and ink drawing by Thomas Rowlandson titled The Comet, dated 1821, shows a man in a long coat raising a telescope to the sky while a group of onlookers gather below and a crowd of spectators fills windows and rooftops. A church spire rises in the background beneath a bright streak across the sky, and the scene is rendered with pale washes of pink, ochre and grey.
