At the age of thirteen, she was taken abroad for the first time. They passed through Amsterdam where there was a Rembrandt exhibition. "I went absolutely mad, and set out to copy as many of his paintings as I could, in pencil, in a grubby little sketchbook". This must be that sketchbook, containing her copies of some of Rembrandt's paintings, together with other sketches from the journey including sketches from Cologne (one across two sides) and Heidelberg. reference term-31041 adlib-term-31041 777e9d03-48c7-3aba-a563-03dee309fe95 graphite reference term-101697 adlib-term-101697 613a191a-56ce-3317-8b6e-e5df00e65022 sketchbook reference agent-149638 adlib-agent-149638 7376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8 The Fitzwilliam Museum reference term-9168 adlib-term-9168 6b0c59e1-73cc-3b5c-8e54-56f42806ba6f British
