Noteworthy:
There is little to nothing known about RSW's chalk drawings because he kept no diary of
them. We do not know how many there are (or may be) out there.
Featured Artwork: The Leaping Brook
RSW's Diary Comments
Woodward did not keep records of his pastel paintings he called chalk drawings.
Additional Notes
We are not sure what brook this scene captures. The stone wall on either side is pretty distinct and we have not come across any photographs of a similar scene.
