Original Eleanor Hughes etching.

Unique working proof impression, touched by the artist with white chalk in preparation for burnishing small areas of the plate. Eleanor Hughes used this impression as a guide proof and the extreme outer corners of the sheet have pinholes where it was once attached to the artist’s studio tackboard.

Signed with the artist’s signature stamp. From the artist’s own personal collection.

On cream/oatmeal wove paper with full margins and deckle edge. Generally very good original condition for a working proof of this nature.
