Colwood for Lord Justice Bowen, Cuckfield, Sussex, England, 1884, Original Plan. Halsey Ricardo.

A Beautifully Detailed, Original Plan of the Colwood, the seat of Lord Justice Bowen near Cuckfield, Sussex, England.  HAND-COLORED.   Halsey Ricardo, Architect.  From the American Architect and Building News, October 31, 1884.

This picture is extremely hard to find, as the American Architect and Building News not only had a very small circulation during that time, but very few were actually preserved or colored as this has been.  It measures 11.75 by 8.75 inches.  Has a mat border and foam core backing (not attached to the picture).  The whole plan measures approximately 16 by 12 inches (with mat border).  Finely detailed and beautifully hand-colored.  Shrink wrapped.

Plan is in VG+ condition with light browning along the edges and some light crinkling.
