content: Artwork and sketchbooks include holiday cards created by Ryerson, 3 painted sketches, and six sketchbooks/notebooks and loose sketches primarily in pencil. An oversized sketch of a lion and a paper doll are by unidentified artists, possibly Ryerson. Also found here are small pieces from Ryerson's personal art collection which are mostly European artworks such as a sketch by British artist John Wallace (Pipeshanks) and a French triptych of the Visitation. Most works are unsigned and are fragments, which were likely taken from a larger book.
