William Lionel Wyllie RA (1851-1931)
Bait Diggers at Portchester

etching with drypoint, signed in pencil

A very atmospheric scene, with the ancient Portchester Castle beyond. One of our most popular etchings and now very difficult to find.

Framed & glazed in our studio using conservation materials.

Overall dimensions including frame: 35.5 x 55 cm

We only sell original etchings by Wyllie, each bearing his actual pencil signature in the lower margin. The original etchings have a gradation and subtlety of tone which cannot be achieved with modern methods of reproduction.
