Italy, sketched from train window
Description
Depicts a landscape of hills, buildings foreground left and distant hills top right. George Lambert travelled by train through France en route to Palestine in 1918. He wrote " Italy does not compare, in my humble opinion with South of France, it is too post card. But the cities, buildings and people are very picturesque'.
