Bernard Lavell Drawings

 

Bernard's new booklet entitled "Sketches of Southampton Old Cemetery" is now available.

 

In A5 format, it contains 22 of his fine drawings.  In Bernard's own words,

"In these drawings I try to convey both the strange beauty of the memorials together with the memories of the deceased shown in the inscriptions and epitaphs; all of this surrounded by the wide variety of plants and trees which give the Old Cemetery some of its sense of mystery and adventure."

 

Available for £3.00 from our usual outlets, or £3.30 by post (UK).
