Etching, platemark 300 x 210mm (11¾ x 8¼"), with large margins.
Henry Fawcett (1833-84), economist and politician. A key figure in the heyday of the Liberal Party, Fawcett rose to prominence within a political culture founded on property and wealth on the back of his academic position as professor of political economy at Cambridge University. Fawcett lost his sight after an accident in his twenties and became the best-known blind man in British public life and the first to be elected to parliament. Rare etching by Léon Richeton (1854-1934), French printmaker resident in London.
