Fences (Agriculture), Striking and Poignant c. 1820 Engraving, Abraham Rees, London Chinese painting of worker showing what looks like mimeographed

showing what looks like mimeographed paper from a local newsletter of some sort

and one thin slice in the clay on the bottom of one plate

which will also tip up to stand at a 45 degree angle

Much aged as evident

I placed the watercolor in this nice antique solid wood frame

Fences (Agriculture), Striking and Poignant c. 1820 Engraving, Abraham Rees, London Chinese painting of worker showing what looks like mimeographedThis engraving of twelve different examples of agricultural fences came from The Cyclopaedia or Universal Dictionary of Arts, Sciences & Literature published by Longman, Hurst, Rees, Orme & Brown, London, in 1820. I just think they're completely beautiful things, each and every one, and all the more together. And what a whole lot of history and resonance rolled up into a fence. Excellent. 10 5 8" x 8 1 2" and in very good antique condition. Blank
