Probably originally done for Harper's or  Scribner's, magazines that utilized Taylor's talents frequently.

Medium:
Watercolor en grisaille

Signature:
signed and dated (1887) lower right.

Condition:
Very good condition, in a beautiful, hand-painted custom frame with a silk mat and gold liner; measuring 24.25 x 19.5" overall. There is some wear to the edges of the frames, but it’s ready to hang.

Comment:
While Taylor is no longer exactly a household name, in his day he was among the most popular, visible and highly paid of American illustrators. This is a beautifully quiet piece which shows the artist at the peak of his form.
