Item Description

4.25 x 7.25 inches. Original pen and sepia ink wash drawing on paper, laid on to card. A very good example. Henry Moses (1781-1870) was highly regarded as a draughtsman and engraver and was known for, among many other works, several series of views of shipping and a few coastal views. His drawing is beautifully executed and highly detailed ? the wash achieving great depth- and reflects the crispness and clarity of his engravings. He was born at Marylebone and died at Cowley, Middlesex.[1]
