John Absolon 1858, watercolour, an extensive Dorset beach scene with figures, fisherfolk and children with distant buildings and harbour, signed and dated 13" x 27"

This picture has cracked glass. It has numerous marks all over the mount and lines of bleaching throughout. It is quite faded. The frame has numerous chips and nibble to the extremities. There are no labels or plaques stating where the view is from so we are not sure if it of the Lyme Regis area but we believe it is definitely of the Dorset coast.
