About the Item
A lovely and curious composition, circa 1780.
Ink and wash on tissue thin Japon paper, adhered to period cream laid paper, 5 1/4 x 3 3/8 inches (132 x 84 mm), the full sheet. With some handling wear and general surface soiling, the matrix has some spots of light brown discoloration in the margins. A sweet composition with lovely detail.
Written in ink appears "The Country (illegible). Heart; I beg you will excuse (illegible). In the meantime, here is something to cherish this lady's health. Apr. 4 June 2." Inside the cartouche someone has written in pencil "Pleasant old drawings of no importance are sold by the (illegible) Gallery on Greenwich Avenue in New York CH 29184." The New York telephone exchange CH 2-9184 is the alphanumeric format for CHelsea 2-9184.
