I wouldn’t have known to look for this

The 1955 drawing is an early work by James Frederic Bone (1929-2015)

Just perfect

I only recently discovered Spillikins

Fences (Agriculture), Striking and Poignant c. 1820 Engraving, Abraham Rees, London antique toy ball I wouldn’t have known toThis engraving of twelve different examples of agricultural fences came from The Cyclopaedia or Universal Dictionary of Arts, Sciences & Literature published by Longman, Hurst, Rees, Orme & Brown, London, in 1820. I just think they're completely beautiful things, each and every one, and all the more together. And what a whole lot of history and resonance rolled up into a fence. Excellent. 10 5 8" x 8 1 2" and in very good antique condition. Blank
