About this work

Description

Sketchbook created by Audrey Amiss, containing pencil and pastel sketches (colour), with no annotations. Sketches are applied with heavy pressure, sometimes causing damage and tears to the paper, which have been repaired by Audrey (?) with sellotape. Elements of the sketches have been erased using a rubber, which appears to have been a compositional decision. Includes sketches of people. The date has been estimated during cataloguing and is based on the contents of the volume.
