Inscriptions 1st mount recto (pencil): In Redland Woods; Surrey
(pencil): FrEdErick H. Evans
(embossed): FHE [artist's blindstamp]
2nd mount (printed on different paper and adhered to 2nd mount): A wind sways the pines, / And below / Not a breath of wild air; / Still as the mosses that grow / On the flooring and over the lines / Of the roots here and there. / The pine-tree drops its dead; / They are quiet, as under the sea, / Overhead, overhead / Rushes life in a race, / As the clouds, the clouds chase; / As we go, / And we drop like the fruit of the tree / Even we / Even so. -George Meredith.
