Title:
Alphabet Book Design (Letters C and K)
Caption:
Alphabet Book Design (Letters C and K). Artist: Miss L. E. M. Jones (British, active 1800-1870). Dimensions: Sheet: 7 5/16 x 8 3/4 in. (18.5 x 22.2 cm). Date: ca. 1830.
In this drawing the letter "C" is formed by a tower that stands beside a raging sea and the letter "K" made out of trees that cross over a stream. These charming conceptions were made for an alphabet book published in 1831 with lithographed plates by Charles Joseph Hullmandel (57.606), a project for which the Museum has other drawings in an album (66.631.5).
