About MeOne of 99 drawings on 92 leaves of paper from a sketchbook used by William Williams.

A small scene comprising three horned cattle standing and one sitting, facing in different directions. There are four skeep amongst them, two sitting and two standing. It seems that the sketch was used for tracing.

This drawing, along with 46 other leaves from the same sketchbook, is now untraced. Aberdeen Art Gallery & Museums is keen to reunite the drawings as one album. If you have any information relating to the current whereabouts of this work please contact Aberdeen Art Gallery.
