About the Item

The Old Pier at Littlehampton is an original modern artwork realized by John Cousen in the middle of the XIX Century. Original colored print on paper. Inscripted on the lower margin "The Old Pier at Littlehampton From the picture in the Vernon Gallery". The name of the etcher is inscripted on the lower right corner: "J. Cousen Engraver". The name of the painter is inscripted on the lower left corner: "Sir A.W. Calcott R.A. Painter". Passepartout and frame are included. Fair conditions: some small signs of foxings on the margins. The work has been realized by the English artist and landscape engraver John Cousen (Bradford, 1804 - London, 1880). He was articled to John Scott, the animal engraver. His larger works after Turner and others are of great excellence, but his exquisite taste is best displayed in his smaller plates after Turner, that are full of poetic feeling. He died at south London in 1880, but had retired from the practice of his art some sixteen years before, in consequence of ill-health. This work is an original from the painting "The Old Pier at Littlehampton" realized by the English painter Sir Augustus Wall Calcott (London, 1779 - London, 1844). Student of J. Hoffner; he was a good portraitist, but he is above all known for his landscapes, which gave him the name of "Claude Lorrain English". This artwork is shipped from Italy. Under existing legislation, any artwork in Italy created over 70 years ago by an artist who has died requires a licence for export regardless of the work’s market price. The shipping may require additional handling days to require the licence according to the final destination of the artwork.
