Set of six engravings mounted to gilt card in sets of three, all in contemporary color. 195 x 150 mm. Each engraving appears to be in a proof state, in advance of signing by the artist and engraver. Closely trimmed, and originally mounted on poor quality stiff gold card for framing; backing boards removed by Celia Withycombe in 2017.
