[QUOTE="2manybooks, post: 11169612, member: 8267"]I don't see anything that would indicate it is not a chromolithograph print. Other examples say it was published by "Thomas Agnew and Sons Ltd, engraver and publisher", 1865. Is there any indication of a publisher on yours? Sometimes different printing methods might be used to produce the colored image vs text, which might explain the marriage of 2 pieces of paper. However, both look like they were produced by lithography - meaning the signature is not actually handwritten. Leech appears to have done both an oil painting version of the scene as well as a watercolor. The chromolithographs would have been a popularized version of the artwork.
