Two charming etchings by George Holmes, trawlers painted by Albert Strange, and Emerald
Editor Dick Wynne has been busy putting some very nice posts up at the Albert Strange Association website. I’m particularly charmed by George Holmes’ etchings, a painting by Albert Strange himself, and the photo of Emerald. And there’s a nice contemporary piece about the development of the canoe stern to read as well. I’d say it was essential reading!
