Beschreibung:

ROWLANDSON, THOMAS Original watercolor (unpublished) of Raglan Castle, about 1797. Sepia ink, graphite and watercolor on Whatman paper (a portion of the watermark visible), 11 1/8 x 17 1/8 inches (28 x 43 cm), signed "T. Rowlandson" (l.l.). Some old marginal matstain, overall slightly toned, but a very fine drawing, matted and framed. Rowlandson did a number of drawings of Welsh castles while travelling with his friend Henry Wigstead for his Remarks on a Tour to North and South Wales in the Year 1797. An old reference attached to the back mat identifies the subject as Conway Castle, but a closely related drawing in the National Library of Wales now states that this is Raglan Castle (the artist depicted both). Provenance: Sessler's Bookshop, Philadelphia, undated label but likely 1920s; The Fine Arts Company of Philadelphia, auction April 16, 1988. C
