The present lot is a fantasy of East Anglia including numerous landmarks such as the Sell and Willshaw fish shop, Bedford (now demolished) on the left, Newark Castle with its distinctive Oriel window, Bury St Edmunds Town Hall, the Market House at Swaffham and various East Anglian Inns. In the centre is a portrait of the artist in Regency costume.
Professor Richardson often spent his holidays in Norfolk gathering architectural material for his books and lectures.

We are grateful to John Harris and Charles Hind for their assistance with cataloguing the group of architectural fantasies.
