| Description | A very large dark green sketchbook. It is bound with card at the front and board at the back, connected by a metal spiral binder. The book is approximately twenty five and a half centimetres tall by thirty six wide. There are a wide variety of sketches, paintings and portraits inside, including male nudes, architectural sketches of churches and still life. There are no page numbers.
The first two pictures in this sketchbook are particularly interesting because they depict birds of prey. This is unusual and may very well be unique within the collection, since the only other pictures of birds in the collection are rough doodles. In this case the first image is a full sketch whilst the second is an abstract painting. In addition, three pages from another sketchbook appear to have been inserted into the book about a third of the way through. The first page depicts a male profile, the second shows a miscellaneous doodle and the third is blank.
Number of Sketches: 48 |
