Item 8: "Marden Br" 37 on drawing; "Marden Bridge Lugg H" on mounting. This is NOT a print but an original artwork; No professionally verified authorship. A lovely original pen and ink drawing on Endsor and Newton Bristol Board signed with the single letter "K," dated 37 for 1937. This is one from a large collection of topographical views mainly from the lake district and all dated between 1936 and 1940; most of these are of bridges and churches. These may be for a book or for publication. Please note this is an original pen and ink drawing and NOT a print. I have tried to research the artist (definitely a professional artist) - so far my best attribution is to Walter Monckton Keesey A.R.E. 1887 -1970 who published several sketchbooks of his topographical work and pen and ink drawings for postcard publication, and sometimes signed his work with a single "K."
Laystone Bridge in the river Lugg near Marden village in Hereforshire, dating from the 17th century, or earlier. Marden is the traditional site of the palace of the Kings of Mercia. Once a Royal manor, Marden is still a thriving agricultural and residential parish with a population of approximately 1400. The River Lugg forms part of the western boundary of the parish and is well loved by fishermen. It is also the home of a mythical mermaid who is said to hold down one of the church bells which accidentally fell into the river.
Dimensions: loosely mounted on 12" x 10" inches sheets, and actual drawing portion is approximately 6.55 x 5.45" inches.
