Other Images:
Soft-ground etching and soft-ground etching with aquatint, 1891, 183 x 249 and 183 x 253 mm., Hardie 143 proofs. Very fine impressions, the etching on old laid paper, the aquatint on thick wove paper, both with full margins, both signed and annotated in pencil; the aquatint with weakened platemark reinforced on the back. The subject is taken from a watercolor by Turner in the National Gallery. The etching is an undescribed proof (Hardie was not aware of any proofs of the etched state); the aquatint is one of 24 proof impressions taken before the plate was reduced and published in The Portfolio in 1891 in an unsigned edition. A rare and possibly unique pair.
