Product details
Darwin (c1760) represents one of the most important recent acquisitions of the Whitworth Art Gallery and, with a twist in the story, this exemplary English piece was actually found intact in a house in Aix-en-Provence, France. The exotic scene accurately imitates a typical 18th century hand-painted Chinese paper, but the tax stamp, still visible on the back of the original rag paper, categorically identifies it as English in origin. The colors interpreted in the 'Serein' livery are very faithful to the original - a surprisingly (and beautifully) well-preserved archival document.
