Authentic vintage print after Sir Frank Brangwyn titled: “Study for the Etching – Abbey of St. Leonard, Tours (Gaunt 215)” This piece is a known reproduction from the early 20th century publication: Published in Vienna (Wien) by Verlag Artur Wolf, circa 1921 This dramatic architectural composition depicts figures gathered beneath a partially ruined structure, showcasing Brangwyn’s powerful draftsmanship and dynamic figure work. The scene is tied to the historic Abbey of St. Leonard in Tours, France, and reflects Brangwyn’s interest in monumental architecture and human activity within it. This example is not an original etching, but rather a period bookplate print from the 1921 Artur Wolf publication—highly collectible in its own right and often found individually framed due to its strong visual appeal.
