Drawing

Watercolour sketch created for publication in an illustrated newspaper or magazine, probably The Penny Illustrated Press. It shows a variety of scenes from a military display.

It is not dated, but was drawn by the artist Rossi Ashton and has been signed by him in the bottom right hand corner.

This item is one of several theatrical drawings from a collection of sketches commissioned from contemporary artists to be printed in illustrated magazines. The collection was donated to the museum by Sir William James Ingram in 1914.
