拍场告示

We are grateful to Michael Fontes for identifying this view as Dollgellau, Wales and not Machynlleth as stated in the catalogue.

拍品专文

Machynlleth was the ancient capital of Wales and is situated just south of Dolgellau, a favourite subject of Varley's.

A similar version of this view was sold at Sotheby's, London, 25 January 1988, lot 95, illustrated.
