Description

FERRY "SOLANO" IN PORT FROM A BLUFF, BY WATKINS. 15 1/8"x 22" mammmoth plate albumen print on white board mount. Looking down at the ferry from the opposite angle as the previous lot. We can see the hill from which the previous view was made. Smoke rises from the stack of the locomotive and the ferry. Here the picture is composed around the curving forms made of posts that form the slip for the ship. The purple-brown tones are the richest of these 3 prints. Especially rich are the tangled white branches of the foreground bushes. Just slight surface crazing in a few areas. [4-]
