Terraced stone built houses with two children standing by a brick wall
A charming etching of the backs of tall stone built houses. The work was produced from an incised copper plate that has been inked and printed in a press. We would refer you to the Glossary for a detailed description of the process of etching. The work is full of richly observed detail accentuated by hatching and the use of tone to indicate shadows. The work is monogrammed in the plate and then signed in pencil below the plate mark.
Executed while the artist was resident in Northumberland.
