Camp Northampton
Charcoal sketch
34 x 43 cm
At first glance, this charcoal sketch seemingly depicts three barns lining a country lane. The scene seems idyllic, trees and farmland forming a rural idyll. The caption of the sketch 'Camp Northampton' reveals it to be, however, a depiction of one of the seven Prisoner of War camps in Northamptonshire. These camps primarily housed German pilots who would work in the adjacent fields to support the farming industry. Some of these camps still stand today, their wooden shells acting as eery reminders of this dark past.

Dallas Skyline by E. M. “Buck” Schiwetz — 1961

This drawing reminds me of those wonderful telephone book covers (the ones with all the hidden jokes and intricate details) that I used to pore over as a child. (By the way, when clicked, this image is absolutely HUMONGOUS.)
From the booklet Five Years Forward: The Dallas Public Library, 1955-1960 (more of which can be accessed here).

Olive Grove with Hills in the Distance - Charcoal Drawing, Greek Island, Country
By George Tzannes
Located in New York, NY
This 17.5 x 35 inches black and white chalk drawing on paper represents a Greek landscape. Two olive trees are in the foreground, with the countryside extending behind in the distant horizon. Tzannes is an American painter of Greek origins. In his twenties, he visited Kythera, the Greek island of his father's birth. Since then, the island has become the primary reference of his creativity. Using black and white to represent this landscape gives the mighty hundred-year-old olive trees a monumental presence. The viewer is drawn into the timeless, spiritual quality of the Greek landscape. Despite the absence of color, Tzannes' mastery of drawing creates a tangible effect of the Greek light...
