About the Item
In this charming scene a maid appears bashful as she is introduced by her mother to the shepherd’s son.
Ink and wash on hand made, cool-toned cream laid paper, 6 3/4 x 8 7/8 inches (170 x 224 mm), top margin slightly trimmed. Partial watermark of a shield with two horns, upper right corner. The deckle edge along the sheet top has been trimmed out, the three other deckle edges appear to be full.

Paper tape remnants at top right and left corner, verso, also not visible through to the recto. A lovely composition, in very good condition.
