Lakeland Sketchbooks Boxed Set
Ref: FLB014
This boxed set brings together five volumes of pen-and-ink drawings of Lake District scenery by A. Wainwright - author of the famous Pictorial Guides to the Lakeland Fells.
The sketchbooks were first published in the late 1960s and early 1970s: the author saw them as his private rebellion against 'acceptance as art of poverty-stricken and barren inspiration and rank bad execution'.
Each sketchbook contains 80 intricate pen-and-ink drawings of Lakeland scenes.
Each drawing is accompanied by a simple map to identify the location of the viewpoint in relation to its surroundings.
Binding: Hardback
840 pages
400 b/w hand-drawn illustrations
