These sketches document the appearance of several eighteenth-century buildings in Williamsburg prior to their restoration in the 1930s. They consist of one framed sketch and a sketchbook featuring scenes of Williamsburg and the James River drawn by Frank Sewall between 1891 and 1892. The sketchbook is titled: "Williamsburg, Va. The Potomac, the James, and the Canal, 1891." It includes pen, pencil, and watercolor sketches of interior and exterior views of Bruton Parish Church, the Courthouse and Market Square, the Wren building, and various unidentified houses, as well as views of boats along the James and Potomac rivers. The framed sketch is a view of the tower and steeple of Bruton Parish Church
