Engraving by Joseph Winkelman

The museum was pleased to purchase this amusing print from Sanders of Oxford with a bequest left to the museum.  The print is from an engraving by  Joseph Winkelman, who lived in ‘Heathfield’ in Browns Lane from the mid-1970s until the early 1980s.  From the windows of his house he must have seen many traffic jams such as this in the days before Browns Lane was made one-way.  Joseph made a number of etchings and aquatints of Charlbury and the surrounding area.  See his work at www.winkelman.co.uk
