March 1829", lower right, wash on thick paper. Paper apprx 6-5/8" x 11-5/8". Verso not inscribed. We have been cataloguing the sketches works on paper of Captain Edward Jones over the last year. During his European tour, he has offered a view of the past by documenting villages, towns-people and landscapes. His detailed accounts of his surroundings and playful use of light and shadow lend something more than any amatuer illustrator could create.
