Antique Mezzotint Engraving Portrait Of Lady Mulgrave by the Engraver Samuel Arlene Edwards (1862 - 1938) After Thomas Gainsborough.
Penciled statement and signature under the curve of the oval by Edwards mounted in a beautiful gilt frame
Edwards revived an eighteenth-century process of color printing from a single mezzotint plate, making a limited number of copies, and then destroying the plate. He was known to inscribe his work "Engraved and printed in color at one printing without retouching" because he disliked the traditional practice of touching up imperfect prints by hand.
This Lady Mulgrave print contains that penciled message along with his signature, S. Arlent Edwards.
The frame measures approx 26cm x 19.5cm
Will be well packaged and sent via Royal Mail signed for service
