More Information

This group of sketches appears on page 1 of a letter written by Moore in August 1923 from Wighton, Norfolk, to Jocelyn Horner. The subject, prompted by a proposed visit to Norway by Moore, which had just been cancelled, is made up of ideas remembered from school geography lessons.
