拍品專文

The present drawing can be linked to the period when Gainsborough was in Bath, between 1758-1774. Donkeys and ponies with panniers were used to carry heavy loads around the hilly city. The stamps on the drawing were likely to have been added by Gainsborough himself. The sheet was probably to hand in his studio, long after it was drawn, and used to try out these two different stamps.
