Description:

Until Kenneth Mahood's recent discovery of his grandmother's sketchbook, little if anything was knnown of Maud Mahood. As it is, nobody knows why she spent so much of her life drawing the Bloomsbury group. D. H. Lawrence said it was because she didn't know anyone else, but she was much in demand as an artist's model, and there are photographs in existence of her having a bath with Sigmund Freud, handing wallpaper with Auguste Rodin and doing Swedish drill with Bernard Shaw. And thee have been rumors of a romantic attachment to the almost equally mysterious Saxon Sydney-Turner. Whatever the reason, sketch the Group she did, incessantly from dawn to dusk and often in their most private and revealing moments.
