About MeArticle titled, "An Artist's Wanderings" written by James McBey, and originally printed in The Graphic on 7 January 1922. In the article McBey recounts his time as Official War Artist in Egypt from 26 May 1917. It is two pages long, and has been taken removed from The Graphic, along with a few other articles from the same issue.

The article is kept within a portfolio of articles and cuttings that belonged to James McBey, which he kept because they were of interest.

This object is part of an archive that belonged to Marguerite McBey. As a result of her generosity, Aberdeen Art Gallery holds the largest archive of James McBey's work, including prints, drawings, sketchbooks, oil paintings and memorabilia such as this portfolio.
