DRIFT WRECK FROM ARMADA / antique print engraving 1880

"Drift-Wreck from the Armada", a superb high quality antique steel plate engraving print on nice thick paper. Reverse side blank. This fine engraving has a popping 3D effect and is a fine piece for framing. The subject is charming and superbly engraved with exquisite detail.



This is a very fine piece with crisp sharp lines and tones which are impossible to represent quality-wise with digital pictures. Some of my images came out shaded on one side. The paper is of uniform color, which will be the lighter whiter tone rather than the darker half.

Engraved by CH Jeens, after painting by PR Morris. Image size approx. 10" x 6". Printed circa 1870, London: VIrtue & Co.

Due to age, some minor foxing and toning may be present, please view pictures. Image detail as well as full sheet are pictured.

This item was hand picked for its image quality, paper quality, and visual appeal.

Suitable for framing.
