A charming pencil and watercolour sketch on paper of 'Pegwell Bay Ramsgate from Sandwich Bay' initialled SM for Sydney Maiden and dated 1960. It is a beach scene with people strolling along the water's edge while others swim in the sea and children play in the sand. A boat with a white sail glides beyond the swimmers while the port of Ramsgate can just be made out on the headland in the distance. This is believed to be a preliminary sketch for a larger oil on canvas work as the artist has left some instructions in pencil including 'sand' on the beach and 'pewter grey' on the sea.
