London by Dorothy Eg Woollard

Found in our archives, the Black's Sketchbooks are a series of books produced in the early 20th century by a group of well-known artists. Each book contains pen sketches of iconic English and Scottish cities and counties. There are also some books on famous Continental cities such as Paris and Venice. The result is a charming series of books that present a fascinating look at British and European locations as they were almost a century ago. This title presents a delightful view of London as it was in 1924.
'Something of great beauty and more than antiquarian interest' Conde Nast Traveller (March 2009) 'Oringinally produced in the early 20th century, the sketchbooks paint of iconic locations' The Bookseller '...tremendous drawings...would make perfect souvenirs of visits to London...or an unusual gift for anyone intrested in art and/or historic London.' www.dorothywoollard.com (August 2009)
Dorothy Woollard was a portrait painter and etcher who frequently exhibited at the Royal Academy. She did a number of Sketchbooks for Blacks.
