Art & the Unusual
A series of large watercolours executed by Roy Hobdell over a series of three tours in Northern Italy, Sicily, Malta and Gozo in the mid 1950s. Though possibly a commission for one of his patrons like Heber Percy or Lord Berners the fact that they were from a family member by descent makes it likely they were for his own use.
