Description

Watercolour over pencil on oatmeal paper. This is dateable to circa 1800, the year in which Girtin married Mary Ann Borrett and was living in his father-in-law’s house at 11 Scott’s Place, Islington. Primrose Hill was a rather neglected, undeveloped area owned by Eton College until it became Crown Property in 1842 and became an area for leisure and recreation.
