Additional information accompanying item: A fine impression of this very rare print, printed in warm black ink on thin nineteenth-century laid paper with a shell watermark; trimmed just outside the plate mark all round. One of Haden's most romantic prints recalling the photographs of Clementina, Lady Hawarden. We suggest that the landscape is based on Pen Ponds in Richmond Park.
