Catalogue Note
'Every day, London inspires me and encourages me to work. Almost every day I wander with my album into mysterious places and I find amazing things. You must know what a pleasure it is to make discoveries, and London is full of surprises and curiosities' (M.V. Dobuzhinsky, 'Letter from Dobuzhinsky to Alexander Benois, 23 June 1914', Vospominaniya, Moscow, 1987, p.338).
