LevelSubSeries
FormatDocument
DescriptionSketches of scenery and geology in Wales and the Welsh Borders, by or attributed to Charlotte Murchison, [1833-1838], a number of which were published in Roderick Impey Murchison's ‘Silurian System’(1839).
Administrative HistoryOnly a small number of the drawings are initialled by Charlotte Murchison, but many are annotated in the corner with the subject and date in a similar fashion. Those without either initials or annotations (or attributions in 'Silurian System') have been attributed due to the similarities in the paper used, the style of drawing trees and entries in her diary indicating that she was visting the areas in question.
