Joseph Pennell. 1857-1926.
Under Canon St. Station. 1904. Etching. Wuerth 309. 8 1/2 x 11 (sheet 9 7/8 x 14 1/2). Trial proof before the edition of approximately 25. Printed on cream laid paper from an antique volume with the page number '450' in ink in the right-hand margin. Excellent condition apart from a rust spot from iron in the paper, top center, outside the image. Signed and annotated 'imp' and 'trial proof' and titled 'Under Charing Cross' in Pennell's hand. A rich impression of this very rare image, printed by the artist, and especially interesting for the difference in Pennell's and Wuerth's titles. $650.
