Etching titled lower left margin "The Chain Gate", signed at lower right margin "John LaFarge".

It might be difficult to ascertain the identity of the John LaFarge who signed this; John La Farge's youngest son, John La Farge Jr...

Condition is excellent. The frame has a rustic Adirondacks feeling to it, with a suggestion of sa...
