Thirty water-colours and drawings by John Harden., 1809-1810.
Scope and Contents
The majority of the water-colours and drawings are landscapes, chiefly executed in the Edinburgh area or in Aberdour, Fife, during an extended visit to Scotland in 1809-1810, but there are also two drawings of fishwives, perhaps at Newhaven, and another entitled 'Bottling Whiskey' (see MS.8872).
Nine black and white photographs of landscapes now in the National Gallery of Scotland are also included.
