1 vols. 1 vols. A dramatic etching, signed "George Cruikshank" in the plate, showing the torch-lit inner recesses of the Tower of London and Lady Jane Grey being helped from a boat to a set of stone steps on which a number of men, some carrying halbreds, await her. There is a small area of faint discoloration at the center of the plate (not affecting the figures), but it is hardly noticeable amid the murky gloom of the image, and the condition is otherwise fine. INSCRIBED IN PENCIL BY CRUIKSHANK IN THE LOWER MARGIN: "James Bacon Esq. / with the kind regards of / Geo Cruikshank". An attractive and desirable item from the hand of the master. A beautiful impression on India paper laid, the image measuring 3 3/4 x 5 7/8 in., the plate mark measuring 6 x 9 3/8 in.; glazed and in a handsome black wood frame, the whole measuring 11 3/8 x 14 1/8 in.
