Standard Chartered Bank Building



Artline Pen on acid free art paper (230 X 320 mm). Unframed.


In this sketch, I tried to capture the visual contrast of the Standard Chartered Bank Building and the Queen Victoria Memorial Clock Tower. The bank building is solid and strong while the clock tower is delicate and elegant. The former was built in 1930 and the later was commissioned in 1897. You can see these two buildings at upper Beach Street, Penang.



 A detail of the sketch.
