The Coast Road, Kingsdown, No. 2

Drypoint, 1922, 124 x 202 mm., Hardie 363. Very fine impression, with burr and plate tone, on old laid paper with full margins, signed in pencil. No. 1 of this subject was an etching and is in the opposite direction. The drypoint must have been made shortly afterwards, or perhaps even before, as a study for the etching which was published as the frontispiece for a book. Kingsdown is at the south-eastern tip of England, not far from Dover, and the cliffs are white.
