I specialise in affordable original artworks - mainly traditional watercolours and oil paintings but I also have a range of contemporary artworks including limited edition lithographic prints. I also stock a limited selection of antiques and collectables, including treen, ceramics and glass. I have now opened a shop at 26 High St Wallingford (OX100BU) between Reading and Oxford, but I also trade online. My website, www.artandstuffgallery.com has a gallery section with several mini-galleries where my items are displayed, including more contemporary items not shown on LoveAntiques.

Walter W Burgess Etching of the City of Rochester, Kent Dated 1886
Walter W Burgess (1846-1908) was a fine etcher and illustrator of the 19th century. Born in Southampton, he lived in Chelsea in later life and was famous for his collection of etchings "Bits of Old Chelsea". He exhibited at Royal Academy between 1874-1903, and the British Museum and V&A hold examples of his work.
This example of his work is a fine etching of 19th century Rochester in Kent, showing the castle and the River Medway. Signed lower right . Also monogrammed and dated 1886 on the plate on lower edge (hard to see!)
