[British, n.d. c.1920.]
Etching, 175 x 275mm (7 x 10¾"), with large margins. With Fine Art Trade Guild blindstamp to lower margin.
Anne Hathaway's Cottage, in the village of Shottery, one mile from Shakespeare's Birthplace, was the early home of Shakespeare's wife and of her family. The property was in the Hathaway family from the time of Henry VIII to 1838. It is a thatched cottage of the Elizabethan period, and is preserved with much furniture of corresponding date. No building in England is more famous than this "humble" cottage, and no place excepting Shakespeare's Birthplace has more visitors. The cottage, or house, is furnished in a homely style. In one room is the famous courting settle beside the hearth, where it would be well in view of the parents sitting at either end of the chimney corner. The house is of interest as a typical thatched Elizabethan farmstead, but it is its association with Shakespeare that has made it a centre of attraction for visitors to Stratford. Walter Henry Sweet (1889-1943), prolific Devon artist who painted street scenes, moorland views and seascapes.

le Potre Sculps. 1675.
Engraving. Sheet 405 x 285mm, 16 x 11¼". Trimmed and laid on album paper.
A statue of a satyr holding a horn, by Philippe de Buyster (1595-1688), set in a landscape. The statue was commissioned as part of the "Petite Commande" of 1664, the first series of garden ornaments for the new palace of Versailles, featuring mythological creatures suitable for the rustic setting of the original palace. The statuary was replaced during the later, grander developments, so this series, engraved by Jean le Pautre (1618-82), is one of the only records of the original scheme.
