About MeReproduction of a sketch depicting a scene from Don Quixote by an unidentified artist. An annotation at the bottom of the page explains that the sketch was auctioned at Southebys on 26 September 1933, so this reproduction may have been taken from the auction catalogue.

The reproduction 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 reproduction.
