Specialist note

The relatively large size of this etching reflects the scale of the original painting, October, one of Tissot's largest works. Both the painting and etching were exhibited together at the Grosvenor Gallery in 1878, alongside another etching Mavourneen, showing Kathleen Newton wearing the same hat and jacket.
