Original Percival Gaskell aquatint.

Very fine signed proof impression from the only edition.

It is in this form of tranquil aquatint that Gaskell excels. The Edge of the Lake demonstrates this artist’s unrivalled gift for interpretating nature at her most enchanting moments. The fine aquatint ground and superb, painterly technique which Gaskell has employed on this plate have combined to produce the impression of the finest monochrome watercolour.

On smooth cream wove paper with full margins. Very good original condition.
