Francis Nicholson, OWS, British 1753-1844- Album of drawings; 79 drawings with indices, including views of Kent, Yorkshire, Lancashire, Hampshire, Shropshire, Somersetshire, Monmouthshire, and Wales in leather boards (binding detached), variously pencil on paper and pen and black ink on paper, variously inscribed, the album 50.5 x 38 cm. Provenance: Collection of William Drummond.; Private Collection, UK. Note: The lead drawing depicts one of the famed ancient trees at Fountains Abbey in Yorkshire. Its grand scale is emphasised by the artist's placement of a figure by its trunk, who is dwarfed in comparison with the tree's colossal form. Further illustrations depict Beckenham, Dover, Wookey Hole, Brenton Hall at Cheshire, near Hayes in Kent, near Plaistow in Kent, the church at Old Melton, Whitby Abbey, St Mary's Abbey in York, Fountains Abbey, Rievaulx Abbey, Furness Abbey, Kirkstall Abbey, and Kirkham Priory.
