However, once he began to make watercolours for the 'Picturesque Views in England and Wales' venture in the following year, this sketchbook provided subject matter for drawings of Colchester, Great Yarmouth, Lowestoft and Orford, as well as Aldeburgh (cat.no.36).</p><p><em>Gallery label, August 2004</em></p>
