Description: | This is a drypoint etching, a type of print. Drypoint etchings typically have softer lines than most engravings. It shows St Mary's Island and Lighthouse, off the coast at Whitley Bay, with visitors walking across the causeway at low tide. It was published as one of six prints in a folio titled ''Tyne Series', A Series of Masterpiece Drypoint Etchings'. This was engraved by William Lionel Wyllie, a marine and coastal painter, etcher, drypoint artist and writer. Many of his family were also artists. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | North Tyneside artists buildings and views art | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
