LEAVES
FROM THE SKETCH-BOOK OF
WILLIAM SCOTT.
Mr. William Scott, leaves from whose
sketch-book we have pleasure in presenting
to our readers, was born in 1848. With a
view to adopting architecture as a profes-
sion, he was articled in 1867 to a provincial
architect, and was subsequently elected to
one of the earliest Whitworth exhibitions.
In 1870 he passed the examination of the
Royal Institute of British Architects, thereby
qualifying for the grade of Associate. In
1875 he gained the Silver Medal of the
R.I.B.A., the Soane Medallion in 1877, and
the Travelling Studentship of the Royal
Academy in 1878. He is a Fellow of the
Royal Society of Painter-Etchers, and has
published several large plates of Venetian
subjects, as well as a View on the Tiber,
showing a portion of Old Rome, since entirely
destroyed. The accompanying drawings were
made in various parts of the Italian Riviera.
