In Travels in the Cévennes, Peter Allen has retraced over a period of years the route that Robert Louis Stevenson described in his Travels with a Donkey a hundred years ago. Peter’s diary extracts, and forty vividly coloured pochoir illustrations, bring to life the rugged character of this little-known département of Southern France.
Most of the illustrations consist of four or so colours stencilled by the artist on to a simple keyline base, printed from a linocut. Others consist of superimposed stencils without the keyline. Together they give a striking impression of the subtleties of colour and mood of the Cévennes. The colours applied by pochoir have an unrivalled quality because they consist of artists’ watercolour applied through stencils directly to the paper, in this case by the artist himself. Each illustration is therefore in a sense an original, and no two can be precisely the same.
