About the Item

Lion Brewery. 1914. Etching. Hardie 149. 11 1/2 x 8 1/8 (sheet 13 5/8 x 10 1/8). Edition 50, #7. Illustrated: Salaman, Modern Masters of Etching. A fine impression of this scarce print, printed with plate tone on fine antique laid paper. Signed and numbered in ink. Housed in a 20 x 16-inch archival mat. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hardie writes, "The Thames, looking towards Waterloo Bridge and St. Paul's from Hungerford Bridge. The columns of the Lion Brewery, with the lion at the top, are on the right; barges on the mud below. (Some artistic license has been employed, as St. Paul's Cathedral, visible from the middle of Hungerford Bridge, is hidden behind the Lion Brewery from the point of view of the etching."
