Description
This study presents a catalogue of many of the known drawings and includes a photographic reproduction of the exhibition catalogues for the Carfax Gallery in 1911 and 1912. These documents, with sketches against each entry, enable scholars to establish the pictures original titles. Sickert frequently changed his titles and these catalogues throw light on both his initial intentions and on the impact of his titles on the reception of his work.
