DescriptionThe high quality and distinctiveness of Campbell’s draughtsmanship, typified by this unorthodox sketch, translated into his work in other media. His confidence working in dry media was evident from the prominence of drawings among the works he showed at the RHA. In 1936, Campbell exhibited at the RHA a double portrait in charcoal of himself and his brother Laurence, co-signed by his sibling.Exhibition HistoryNew Perspectives.
