About This Item
Ralston, William. Titled on the verso. Original four-panel drawing, in pen and ink, and blue wash. Signed with monogram, 13 in. x 5 in. Fine condition. William Ralston (1848-1911) was born in Dumbarton, and probably studied under his younger brother after abandoning a career as a photographer. He contributed drawings to Punch from 1870 to 1886, specializing in genre and military subjects, also to the Illustrated London News, The Graphic, and Cornhill Magazine, along with designing many publishers' cloth bindings.
