Feigen & Co, Sir David Wilkie (1785 - 1841), 13 October - 25 November 1994 (hors cat.)The present drawing is possibly an early idea for Reading the Will (Munich, 1820-1), the first stages of which involved disinherited sons standing at a table on the right side of the picture. Alternatively it may be an early sketch for the lost painting Columbus at the Court of Spain, in which Columbus explains his ideas to Isabella, Queen of Spain.We are grateful to Alex Kidson for his help in preparing this catalogue entry. The work will be included in Hamish Miles' forthcoming catalogue raisonné of the work of David Wilkie.
