| The
sketchbook has an old mark from a Parisian shop |
The sketchbook is signed by T.F. Šimon |
We show you the sheets of a sketchbook by T.F. Šimon. The green cardboard cover is nothing special, but the contents are a real treasure! The sheets measure 267 x 207 mm. Only the 25 sheets that contain works of art are published on this page. Sometimes we show you only the drawing, sometimes the whole sheet. Some drawings are of particular interest for they were intented for known works of art. This sketchbook shows that T.F. Šimon was an excellent drawer. |
