006550Two heavy card attached by two metal rings. Very Good. Lovely sketchbook of English and Scottish scenery done by a gifted amateur. N.d. circa 1930. Oblong 18 by 26 cm. Unpaginated 13 leaves with 16 pages of illustrations -- most are on rectos. One of the watercolors is mounted. The balance of the artwork done directly into the album. Seven watercolors and nine pencil or charcoal drawings. Depicted are picturesque bridges streams coastal scenery hillscapes and cliffs castles Ludlow Castle farmhouses manor houses and cottages villages railroad tracks stiles and fences. Impressive is the fusion of the impressionistic with an attention to detail. Three of the drawings are less finished in our view with only one being more or less dashed off quick studies and this one being the only page of drawings not of landscapes. Condition: Light soiling of the cover. One leaf detached. <br /><br /> books
