paper, mounted on card support inscribed verso in a

*** Provenance: sold at Christies, October 12th,
1971, as the work of Thomas Girtin (1775-1802).
The composition certainly reflects the interest of the
burgeoning class of watercolourists such as Girtin and
Turner in picturesque sketching tours of such regions.
Girtin also produced the soft-ground etched outlines for
the plates of his famous series Selection of Twenty of
the Most Picturesque Views in Paris, then completed in
aquatint by F.C. Lewis and others.
