| Place of origin |
This drawing is taken from towards the end of Robert Bevan's career, when his angular style of drawing became more pronouced. His sharp descriptions of planar contours would probably have made his drawings particularly amenable to being transfered through squaring, as this drawing has been in preparation for a painting in oils. .
