    Letter to S. D. Kitson from Jack W. Goodison

    Letter to S. D. Kitson from Jack W. Goodison of the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, providing biographical information on the landscape painter Samuel David Colkett

    Date: 7 Sep 1935

  • Transcription

    from pictures by Crome & by Wildens & Snayers. The latter he has also lithographed as well as two pictures by W. Yetts. Both as painter & etcher Colkett may be reckoned among the best of the Norwich School, & his descent from Stark & Crome is clearly evident.”
    It was very enjoyable seeing you again the other day & I hope before the year is out to be able to suggest myself to come & see you at Kid[l]ington. Some time about the end of November, I shall be moving house into the country, which is going to occupy my time somewhat, but despite that it must be managed.

    Yours sincerely,

    Jack W. Goodison
