No. 3 of 36 (PAI0849 - PAI0884).

(Recto) inscribed in pencil in the lower left. If the adjacent pages are indicative, this scene is almost certainly near Teignmouth.

Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.
