a wonderful impression of this RARE crayon lithograph on greenish grey laid paper with wirelines and a 'VDC & C' watermark and with very wide full margins apart from a diagonal crease in the upper left corner, a very small one at the lower right tip of the sheet and two tiny insignificant rust spots near the lower edge, in remarkably good condition
drawn during Orlik's first visit to England, France, Holland and Belgium this is a vituoso exercise in colour lithography
