Durham, England
This picturesque view of Durham Castle was Colman’s response to a commission to create an etching for American Art Review. It was subsequently republished in two other volumes, making it by far Colman’s most widely circulated image. The present copy is a scarce signed proof on tissue-thin laid paper. Another signed proof is in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and belonged to Colman's benefactor, the industrialist H.O. Havemeyer.
