FRANCIS SEYMOUR HADEN (after J. M. W. Turner) Calais Pier.
Etching and drypoint, 1874. 597x838 mm; 23 1/2x33 inches, wide margins. Tenth state (of 12), with much of the sky in the center removed and with the man's profile in the clouds at left. Signed in pencil, lower right. A superb, well-inked impression of this scarce etching.
Haden's largest and most technically complex etching. The artist had a new intaglio printing press specially made to accomodate the scale of this oversize etching plate. Schneiderman 141.
