After falling into disrepair, the conservatory from Coombe Cliff House was dismantled and rebuilt in the grounds of the Horniman museum in South East London.

Although sold unframed, a basic white frame and mount (as seen in the 2nd image) can be included at cost so it would be ready to hang - enquire for more details. Watercolour, ink, gesso, pen on paper
