Note du spécialiste


Lear's detailed numbering sequence gives a sense of where he was on a tour at the time each drawing was made. Number 169 from the same tour as the present drawing, with very similar blue-grey colouring and also dated 26 and 27 May 1867, was sold in these Rooms, 5 July 2016, lot 120.
