Zusammenfassung:For decades the printmaker Norman Ackroyd has been fascinated by the Hebrides, the archipelago lying to the north-west of mainland Scotland. Inhabited since prehistoric times, some of these islands are now deserted and rarely visited. Ackroyd's urge to see them for himself has been the impulse behind his many journeys to the region. This book brings together a selection of the original plein-air watercolour sketches, some produced under arduous conditions of weather and sea, which have provided the basis for many of his most memorable etchings. A gazetteer by the artist contains notes about the locations of the sketches. The title's publication coincides with exhibitions of the artist's work at Eames Fine Art, London, and Zillah Bell Art Gallery, Thirsk
