DescriptionDue to the lack of a signature in the plate and the watermark of 1862, this print clearly is a false pre-lettering state, mentioned in the literature, which certainly was printed no earlier than September 1862, when this work was printed for the Société des Aquafortistes.
ProvenanceMr. and Mrs. H. Paul Buckingham, North Palm Beach, FL; Mr. and Mrs. H. Paul Buckingham III, Holden, MA and Mr. and Mrs. Thomas W. Buckingham, Boylston, MA
