Semi-hard, slightly limp thick card. Cloth spine.
1872
1872. Semi-hard, slightly limp thick card. Cloth spine. . Very good Minus. Lovely bucolic views. Oblong, 19.5 by 26.5 cm. 15 leaves with pencil drawings on the rectos (nothing on the versos). About half are finished drawings, while the other half are studies, with two to twn separate drawings on the page. Views include hoary trees, cows, lakes, streams, rivers, islands, mountain backdrops, etc. The studies are charming, we might add, with the artist working on fences, tree branches, cottages, etc. Several names written in pencil on first leaf. While handwriting is neat, it has become a little faint and so we can't determine the exact spelling of the surnames or figure out which of the names might have been the actual artist. Condition: moderate wear to cover. Rebacked with cloth. Scattered light soiling inside. Tissue guards are creased and bit ragged.
