COL A unique collection of drawings, manuscript papers and an exercise book... COL A unique collection of drawings, manuscript papers and an exercise book of original songs by outsider artist and musician Gwenydd Powell (b. 1889), purchased from the estate of film critic Dilys Powell and housed in a manila envelope bearing a handwritten note by Ivor Powell Jr: ""She was one of my Dad`s (Ivor Powell Senior) sisters. I think she may have committed suicide in the early 0s. She was a talented violinist"". A clipping from a 1912 Bournemouth Graphic also included here, shows Gwenydd with violin and bow and is accompanied by a caption reading ""The talented violiniste, who appears with Mr. Lloyd Powell at the Winter Gardens next week"". The lot also comprises seven abstract landscape gouaches and seven 35 x 25.5cm loose sheets featuring pencil drawings of lone figures, each labelled ""Drawing for Sculpture"". A manuscript (in a painfully precise and often illegible hand) entitled ""Notes on the Trial"" discusses Gwenydd`s landlady, black magic, hypnotism and witchcraft in very sinister tones. Of a more Blakean tone is the manuscript ""Angels Waiting To Convey The News of The Resurrection"". Viewing recommended.
