Palmer (Samuel, 1805-1881). The Skylark, 1850, etching on chine collé on thick wove paper, the seventh state (of eight), after the plate was minimally cut down, but this impression, apparently without the vertical line extending obliquely to the right of the skylark towards the tree on the right side of the image, and without the etched lettering to lower margin Samuel Palmer 1717 (as described in Lister), signed in the plate to lower-left corner, a few light scattered spots, and pale mount stain, margins trimmed, plate size 120 x 97 mm, sheet size 134 x 105 mm, framed and glazed (19.5 x 17.5 cm) Lister E2, vii/viii. Perhaps an intermediate state between states 6 and 7.
