Comment
I am a long time BWS fan - and feel his strongest medium is pencil. So I am pretty happy to have secured this pencil that I remember well from both the Cygnus Box portfolio as well as its link to the scarce Nimue Photoprint
I saw this pencil live at PIH's LA area location in the Summer of 2016 - fortunately for me, it didn't sell as it had an aggressive starting bid.
This time I was able to secure it at PIH so patience paid off!
