Lot Essay


Sir Nicholas Goodison commented: ‘We identified the scene in 2006, just in time for Wendy Baron’s book (W. Baron, Sickert: Paintings and Drawings, New Haven and London, 2006) as the eastern end of the Fondamenta delle Zattere di Saloni from behind the Dogana.’

We are very grateful to Dr Wendy Baron for her assistance in preparing this catalogue entry.
