The Samuel Butler Collection
Henry Festing Jones
78. My first attempt in colour to draw the islands from Mount Eryx.
I saw I should not have time to finish it, and, instead, did no. 80.
79. A volume of thirty-four leaves of drawings in pencil and ink.
I did all these under Butler’s auspices, and often he was sitting near doing another sketch of much the same view. It may be said that they are the work of his pupil.
80. Drawing in pencil and ink: Trapani and the Islands from Mount Eryx. 1913.
Reproduced in the Memoir, ch. xxxii.
