Catalogue of the engravings & drawings together with some water-colour drawings and oil paintings : comprising the property of S. Vacher, Esq. ... C. Thomas Stanford, Esq. ... and from other private sources ..
This 1918 auction catalogue from Sotheby, Wilkinson & Hodge in London lists old-master engravings and drawings from the private collections of S. Vacher and C. Thomas Stanford, aimed at collectors and dealers. The four plates show an etched landscape of rocky hills and a village, a red chalk study of angels and figures, a framed woodcut-style hunter in an ornamental border, and a shepherd with a staff beside a sleeping flock. A designer could take from them the decorative cartouche framing and the varied hatching of pen, chalk and etched line.
