Never been much of a fan of Cecil, but I do like a few of these pictures.

I also like the colouration of them; not quite sepia but of a very warmish colour. Can this be achieved with today's papers and toners?

Great stuff! He designed a lot of the background scenes himself, especially things like the picture of Baba Beaton (his sister, I think) from 1927. That image must have appeared to be very modern at the time.
Thanks for posting the link Nick.

Thanks, Nick. Love them all. I was not too familiar with his work, therefore a nice surprise.
