John Nash. Newly Discovered Engravings and Drawings

“You might suppose that John Nash studies are an agreeable and gentle pastime and there is little excite. Well, that may be true some of the time, but I received a letter on 25 June 2020 enclosing a photograph of an etching recently bought on eBay. It was clearly by John Nash, though I had never seen it before, nor had a number of other Nash enthusiasts. Less than a week later the dovecote illustrated was identified as being the one at Monks Risborough in Buckinghamshire. It is a lovely etching. It was clear that a celebratory publication was required. The Wood-Engravings of John Nash was published in 1987; since then two wood-engravings have been newly discovered (one in a couple of formats) and a preliminary proof of an engraving and ten preparatory drawings of engravings have become available from the John Nash Estate. Altogether they make an interesting and instructive book.” – Jeremy Greenwood
