Description
The final ‘Cotmania’ volume. Volume XII was created in 1937, the year of Sydney Kitson's death, so remains unfinished, i.e. it is not bound in Cotman blue or tooled in gold; and not all its contents are pasted into the book.
The content of this volume relates largely to the publication of Kitson's biography of Cotman, 'The Life of John Sell Cotman' which was published by Faber & Faber earlier in the year. Kitson died on 1 July.
