About MeOn December 5 1905 a portion of the roof at Charing Cross Station gave way. Bone created this engraving during the reconstruction of the building. This work is named after the huge movable scaffolding dominating the scene. Versions of this print were exhibited at both the New English Art Club and the Society of Twelve in 1906.Jean-Louis Forain
