Homesteads, a glimpse into the past and present, where history intertwines with modernity. From the grandeur of Ham House in Surrey to the breathtaking view atop Milano's Duomo, each homestead tells its own unique story. In Ham House, Surrey (aquatint), time stands still as we wander through its elegant halls and lush gardens. The tranquility of this homestead transports us to a bygone era, where beauty and opulence reigned supreme. Milan's Cathedral offers a different perspective on homesteading - On the roof of the Cathedral (b/w photo), we witness an urban sanctuary amidst bustling city life. This juxtaposition reminds us that even in metropolitan landscapes, there are havens that provide solace and serenity. Old Houses at Clapham Common, North Side (litho) takes us back to simpler times when community thrived within charming cottages. These humble abodes remind us of the importance of preserving our heritage and cherishing our roots. Park Hall (engraving) invites us into a rural retreat surrounded by nature's embrace. Here lies an idyllic escape from the chaos of everyday life – a place where one can reconnect with oneself and find solace in simplicity. A Giriama girl from Kenya's Coast Province carrying her load symbolizes resilience and strength passed down through generations. Homesteading is not limited to physical structures but also encompasses cultural traditions that shape our identities. New Ideal Homesteads Illustration represents dreams taking shape as architectural drawings come alive. It inspires us to envision our ideal homes while embracing innovation and creativity in design. The Imprisonment of Alfred Dreyfus on Devil's Island captures both despair and hope amidst adversity - reminding us that even in confinement, human spirit endures with unwavering determination for justice. Le Bas Bleu (colour litho) portrays intellectual pursuits within domestic spaces.
