Works

The curtsy. A quite charming little etching. Girl dancing, skirt outspread and held up by extended right arm. The suggestion of movement is very fine.

Study of a head. Bust, with a sweet, pensive, dreaming face, large eyes and a wealth of soft hair.

The ferry. River in foreground, old-fashioned punt against the further bank, on the same bank trees thick with foliage reflected in the river by mysterious shadows, through a gap in the trees high mountains appear in the distance, a cloudy sky.

The class room. 14 | etching | Julian Ashton, with pupils, working at their easels in the studio. An interesting plate.

Gloucester Street, The Rocks, Sydney. A finely-worked plate, shewing a bit of OLD SYDNEY long since demolished. Besides being good etchings, this plate and the two named below have an historic interest. These two points make them well worth securing.

Old house, Trinity Lane. Another bit of Old Sydney now demolished.
