SOLDTags: Evelyn Dunbar ink pen and ink Evelyn Dunbar at The Watts Gallery
Provenance: Roger Folley; Alasdair Dunbar; Hammer Mill Oast Collection
Forever exploring possibilities in line drawing while not in any sense abandoning the draughtsmanship for which she was celebrated, Dunbar shows here what she can achieve with a fairly strict economy of line. This has come with experience; her early line drawings were much more lavish. We can presume that the coquettish woman on the recto has no connection with the toddlers on the verso.
We are grateful to Christopher Campbell-Howes for assistance.
