Sign In to see what this sold for

An unsigned work in ink and watercolor on laid paper by Zachariah Reynolds of Washington County, Pennsylvania. Circa 1810, this image is executed on a 7 x 5 inch sheet of paper and is attributed to Zachariah Reynolds who was well known for his penmanship. Around 1810 he executed a series of ink and watercolor charts of the internal organs for Dr. Leatherman, of Houstonville, Pennsylvania (see lot 346). This work is from a group of twenty works that recently surfaced in the possession of Zachariah Reynolds' descendants. An affidavit of provenance from these descendants accompanies this piece.

Very good noting minor spots of foxing, not laid down.
