拍品專文

Towards the later stages of his career, Cozens adopted the technique of signing his name on the mount as with the present watercolour. There are comparable examples in the British Museum, London (see nos. 1928,0417.3 and 1941,1213.716, both dated circa 1746-1786).

We are grateful to Dr Kim Sloan of the British Museum for her help in preparing this catalogue entry.
