Printing Details
This is a wonderful original student architect's drawing for the design of entrance gates to a public park. The sheet measures 76 × 56cm, and has a watercolour image of how the gates would look (stone gateposts with ornaments, iron gates with crests), and with in front of a large tree lined drive through the park. Passing by the gates, the architect has added a lady walking a Scottie dog. Bordered in black, and with handwritten title.
This work is signed by G Reed, from Mid-Essex Technical College, and is dated November 1946.
Condition
The drawing is in good condition for age. There is some very light creasing and tanning, some pin holes to the top corners and two small wormholes to the right hand wide of the image. It would look superb framed.
