Etching with drypoint. Black ink on wove (?) paper. Inscription bottom left ‘Seymour Haden 1864’. |
| Description |
The scene is likely a view of one of the brooks which flowed into the Multeen River at the Viscount of Hawarden’s estate at Dundrum, County Tipperary, Ireland. |
| Exhibited Dundee |
It is likely that this print was the one exhibited, as An Irish River, at the Dundee Fine Art Exhibition, Albert Institute, 1879 (West Gallery, No. 1168, no price) and either already in Orchar’s collection or subsequently bought by him.
