  Title from original mount. Cathona indicated at lower left on original mount. Remounted 1992
  Although signature and date appear to be genuine, dating is in doubt as one painting in the series, DG SV*/Sp Coll/Rae/10, shows a building not completed until 1845. The pictures may have been signed between 1891, when a photographic edition of the unsigned views was first published, and 1900 when Rae died.
