Object Number: H4547.J

Collection: World Archaeology

Object Name: sketchbook

Artist: Belzoni, Senor Giovanni

Description: Back of the (now) 5th page of a sketchbook that is thought to have belonged to Giovanni Belzoni. The page is mostly blank but has a vertical line along the right hand side. This is used as the base of a horizontal line for a small pencil sketch. It depicts what appears to be a person carrying a rectangular object, half of another person behind him, 3 arches, a tree and a rectangular doorway. The page is creased vertically down the middle which might suggest that the notebook was not originally bound with a hard cover.
