Willis Hutchinson 1883 Double-Sided Sketchbook Drawing: People on Horses, House, Croquet, Hammock greyhound plate with the lovely butterfly perfectly

with the lovely butterfly perfectly balancing the composition

) and remnants of center tabs of a few (I'd guess these were punched out of sheets)

The figure is carved of wood with what looks to me like a combination of graphite for the face and either crayon or paint for the orange and black details

allowing a couple of pieces of grass to spring loose (see photos)

(I'm including one by Daumier in the photos)

Willis Hutchinson 1883 Double-Sided Sketchbook Drawing: People on Horses, House, Croquet, Hammock greyhound plate with the lovely butterfly perfectlyThis double sided drawing came from the small sketchbook of a Willis Hutchinson, dated 1883 84 almost all the pages were already loose, so Im listing the drawings individually. These drawings are just my sort of thing, filled with people and houses and animals and ships and all sorts of other little things, from a croquet game to a pocket watch to a slingshot, plus many sorts of chairs and kites and a unicycle too! With pretty amazing attention detail
