Title: Colour Etching. A practical treatise.
Description: .: London, Simpkin, Marshall, Hamilton, Kent & Co., 1909, in-8°, 23 pp + 2 plates ( original colour etchings ), publisher's cased illustrated binding, spine slightly damaged, corners with some wear, interior with some faint foxing spots. Tipped on to the first paste down is a printed ex-libris of Margaret Redmond , which we think is the same M.R. who exhibited stained glass windows at Wellesby College (MA) in November 1923. Loosely inserted is an undated autograph letter of 4 pp on paper of '' Fenway Studios '' (Boston). The letter is written from Chesham (New Hampshire) and signed by Margaret ( Patterson?). In the letter she advises ''Dear Cecilia'' on technical and esthetic details about painting and printmaking. She remarks that her canvas Nassau Palins (?) is nearly finished , in time for the Independent exhibition. An interesting letter in a beautiful handwriting, however with an uncertain attribution.. .
