Notebook Sketches - Gouty Georgians & Angry Monarchs


Notebook Sketches - Gouty Georgians & Angry Monarchs

Another page of sketches and doodles from one of last years notebooks.

This is a composite image, not an actual single page - a little collection of scribbles I liked, and omitting the shopping lists, pin numbers and notes to myself saying 'Focus!' or 'Try Harder!' that tend to impinge on the imagery.

I've got here some ruddy-faced Goergians (possibly Samuel Johnson?) with gout, a very cross King, the Duke of Wellington and a vexed figure in Restoration garb (possibly Charles II?). Maybe Tzar Nick II too?!
