專家說明

Boys exhibited a number of large-scale watercolours of European city subjects at the New Water-colour Society in the 1860s. At this date, there was a fashion for watercolours to compete with oils in terms of size and finish, and this work is one of that type - a style popularised by William Callow (1812-1908). Boys depicted the Rathaus, or Old Town Hall, in a number of large watercolours of around this date.
