\n108. The Swing. Le Blond, No. 92. <\/p>\n

After a painting by Webster. On the branch of a large tree, in front of a cottage, is fixed a swing; a damsel is in it, and two boys are helping her. Mother sits sewing at the door. Three other children and a dog watch events. In the background is a very enticing landscape. This print varies considerably in quality; some specimens give the idea of the plate being worn. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
