Homington Water Meadows
Howard Phipps R.W.A, A.R.E
1220
This characteristically fine wood engraving exemplifies Phipps' outstanding ability to capture light and shade with the graver (the tool used to carefully engrave the lights in the wooden block). The scene is near the city of Salisbury, where much of the artists's work has been made. The print is in excellent condition.
