Girton College
Watercolour
24 x 17 cm
Signed to bottom right.
Little is known about Joy Fox. It seems that she studied at Girton College, Cambridge between 1939 and 1942. This charming watercolour depicting the main gate at the college featured in Douglas de Lacey’s book ‘Girton’s War: the Village 1939-1945.’ The work included memories of rationing and the various strategies employed to keep warm and to find clothes for coming up to Girton. There are also descriptions of lectures, college rules, entertainments and war work.
Condition: Generally very good.
