Description

Lithograph from two stones, first in beige ink to tone background, and second in black ink to drawing on off-white medium-light weight paper with no watermark. The image depicts an angled view of the front of a gothic cathedral. The architecture is very detailed and shows several arches and spires. The middle portion of the cathedral is highlighted with white areas. The lower quarter of the image is rather dark and hazy with several figures in the lower right corner leaving the cathedral. Above the architecture is the sky in the beige tone with black over it. The print is signed in pencil immediately below the image just right of center, "H. Leigh" and is numbered in pencil "11/20" immediately below the image to the right. Image size 23 13/16 x 16 1/2" Paper size 29 3/16 x 23 7/8"
