Hedley Fitton (1859–1929), Winchester Cross — Original Pencil-Signed Etching, First State, with Robert Dunthorne “Rembrandt Gallery” Label.
A strong, clean early impression of Hedley Fitton’s Winchester Cross, pencil signed lower right.
This example carries the original printed label from Robert Dunthorne, The Rembrandt Gallery, Liverpool & 5 Vigo Street, London — Fitton’s principal dealer and publisher — confirming:

Artist: Hedley Fitton

Subject: Winchester Cross

Medium: Original etching

State: First

First-state impressions are notably scarce, printed in smaller numbers before the plate was reworked for later states. The Robert Dunthorne label provides excellent early provenance.
The composition shows Fitton’s characteristic mastery of architectural etching — deep shadow, dramatic perspective, and densely populated foreground scenes.
