Description

Sheet of Original 1937 Graphite Drawing. A sheet of 6 sketches pasted onto a single album page of heavy card, inscribed and dated. In addition there are 7 fascinating black and white photographs laid down on the reverse, including Sydenham Manor, Devon, with inscriptions and dated 1937. Unsigned. Some foxing as shown in photos.

From a fascinating album labelled Court Farm, The BV, Dorset, 1935-1937. Documenting the sights and events of the Blackmore Vale Hunt in Dorset, with associated images of local scenes, landscapes, carthorses and farm animals. Views include Sidmouth, Cerne Abbas, Salisbury. Together, the album images form a remarkable record of English country pursuits in the 1930s, with sensitively painted watercolours and graphite drawings, often with humorous, anecdotal inscriptions. Many of the album pages are brought further to life by black and white photographs pasted down, capturing specific local views and touching family portraits. As well as individual album pages and drawings, the album itself, with some pages of photography still intact, is also available.
