Mr Tolstoy in the playground on his last day at The Town & Country School, hence to camera. He doesn't look too sad - I wonder why!

A page from his earliest book "The Founding of Evil Hold" 50 years before J K Rowling.

Are there any other T&C works of art out there, we could put into the gallery?
