Corbel on Gate House, Stokesay Castle; Shropshire Corbel
1944. Etching on cream laid paper, 3 3/16 x 1 9/16 inches (81 x 41 mm), full margins. Signed, dated, and inscribed "II" in pencil, lower margin. From the second state (of 2) before the reduction of the plate. Fletcher states a total of three trial proofs, an unknown number of first state impressions, and a regular edition of 136 second state impressions. We believe this impression may be one of the two known second state trial proof impressions. Printed by David Strang. In very good condition with paper tape at the top and bottom left-side corners on the verso. Illegible inscription in brown ink in the top right sheet area on the recto, well outside of image area.
