Artwork Title: Preliminary Sketch

Preliminary Sketch

Arthur Rackham

...In an exhibition at the Society of Illustrators, illustrator Peter de Sève includes working drawings that reveal the thought processes of the artist: Preliminary sketches that reveal the original spark of inspiration before the concept has been refined and diminished. [This] work by Arthur Rackham reveals the artist's underlying sensitive pencil lines. De Sève writes, "It's thrilling for me to see the half-erased pencil lines that reveal clues to the artist's thinking process and detours he or she traveled to get to the final artwork."
