CAMILLE PISSARRO AND GEORGE W. THORNLEY
Fête du Jubilé de la Reine à Bedford Park, Londres.

Lithograph printed in light brown on Chine appliqué, circa 1890. 190x223 mm; 7 1/2x8 3/4 inches, full margins. The deluxe edition of 25. Signed by both Pissarro and Thornley in pencil, lower margin. Printed by Atelier Belfond, Paris. Published by Hessèle, Paris. From 25 Lithographies. A superb, dark and evenly-printed impression of this very scarce lithograph.

This lithograph is based on Pissarro's (1830-1903) same titled oil painting from 1897. Pissarro escaped to London during the Franco-Prussian War, 1870-71, and returned to London frequently during the last decade of his career (his son Lucien settled permanently in London in 1890).
