Lot description

This etching by Albany E. Howarth, one of Britain's most esteemed architectural printmakers of the early 20th century, captures the ornate splendor of the ancient doorway of the Church of Santa Cruz in Toledo, Spain. Rich in Gothic and Plateresque detail, the monumental portal is depicted with Howarth's signature precision and drama, enhanced by deep architectural shadows and fine linear texture. Howarth, celebrated for his etchings of European cathedrals and historic facades, traveled extensively across the continent to render these iconic sites with reverence and technical mastery. Presented in its original vintage frame, this print includes its historical description on the verso, enhancing both its context and collectibility. A striking work by a master of architectural etching. Signature and title in plate. Artist: After Albany E. Howarth (British, 1872-1936) Issued: c. 1960 Dimensions: 14"L x 18.50"H Country of Origin: England
