Description: |
Handsomely shaded and complete monochrome drawing on thin, laid-texture japan paper with drawn framing lines, tipped down to a sheet of thick wove, fully signed in black ink. The image is of the shore of the lake with several beached boats, a small grove of trees to the left and the lake and hills beyond.
Inscribed with the location in French on the support sheet. Although undated, the sheet must derive from the same 1927 trip to Italy that produced other views in the same area. The lake of Bolsena in in northern Lazio province, fairly close to both Viterbo and Orvieto. |
