Image information
The Old Royal Observatory, Greenwich
Signed and inscribed in pencil by the artist, and with his name in the plate. The artist has also written the number '6/75' in pencil ahead of the title but it is not clear if this indicates June 1975 or no. 6 of an edition of 75. 1975 in fact saw the 300th anniversary of the Observatory and that date is consistent with the general scene shown on what is apparently a summer day, with the time-ball on Flamsteed House about to drop at 13.00.
