Design for a private view card for Messrs Dowdeswell

Design for a private view card for Messrs Dowdeswell probably dates from May 1884. The Private View for 'Notes' - 'Harmonies' - 'Nocturnes', Messrs Dowdeswell, London, 1884, took place on 17 May. However, it is possible that it was a design for the second show, 'Notes' - 'Harmonies' - 'Nocturnes', Second Series, Messrs Dowdeswell, London, 1886, the private view being on 29 April 1886.

This work is catalogued in MacDonald 1995 (cat. rais.) [more] (cat. no. 959).
