Three Family Sketches from a sketchbook

Three Family Sketches from a sketchbook

£325

Hunt's sketchbooks contained some of the most sensitive and intimate recordings of English family life in the early 19th century. These three studies, no doubt including family members, are like snapshots we might capture today on a phone. One or more of them may come from the same sketchbook as the Valentine card sketch, also on this website.

Three drawings in one frame. Unframed dimensions are for the central sketch.
