Description | A coloured ink illustration from page 75 of Milne, A A (1973) 'Winnie-the-Pooh'. London: Methuen. Large reproduction of line illustration. Probably not coloured by E H Shepard. Illustration is similar in format and style to draft 'Wind in the Willows' illustrations (EGM/4/99), one of which is marked 'NOT by EHS,' so is also probably not coloured by him. Item may represent publishing drafts testing the aesthetic of colouring the ink drawings. |
