Description: INTERNATIONAL BUYERS:? The shipping rates shown are for '1st Class International Package' with tracking.? Ebay is also promoting their EIS International Shipping program on sellers pages. I do not use this program because it is more expensive, slower, not very transparent, and frustrating to the buyer, if something goes wrong. Do not select it, if ebay does show it as an option. Thank you. Print Specifics: Type of print: Original Etching printed on laid paper with a watermark. Year of printing: 1882 Etched by: Charles J. Watson - Original artist: Charles J.

It is, indeed, particularly suitable to etching, as it affords the opportunity for bringing a considerable variety of structures within the same plate. Here we have a tower, a bridge, several blocks of houses, a quay, and some barges, and some houses are seen through the rigging of the nearest barge, and other more distant houses are visible beyond the picturesque bridge, so that altogether the subject gets well filled with material of the kind that an etcher likes, and which he feels to be in harmony with the especial requirements of his art.
