Two Aspects of Gilly Potter in Savoy Follies

Robert Stewart Sherriffs is an artist. 4 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Robert Stewart Sherriffs made humorous, ink-on-paper drawings in the 1930s that poke fun at everyday life. Two Aspects of Gilly Potter in Savoy Follies shows a plump socialite mid-slip in front of a Savoy banqueting hall, while the untitled 1933 drawing pairs a bowler-hatted man with a giant champagne cork popping toward his nose. His line is quick, his jokes blunt. Tap Two Aspects of Gilly Potter in Savoy Follies to see more of his Savoy sketches.
