Note:	Clifford Isaac Addams 'Clifford Addams': An important American painter, etcher and engraver, Clifford Isaac Addams studied art first in the United States before leaving for continued studies in Europe. He is known to have both visited and worked in Belgium, Holland, Spain, France, Italy and, most particularly, England. Adams, in fact, maintained working studios in both London and New York City throughout the first three decades of the twentieth century.
	In Europe, a major influence upon Clifford Addams's development was James McNeill Whistler (1834-1903). Addams studied under Whistler in the mid 1890's and from 1897 to 1903 (the year of Whistler's death), maintained a close friendship. During his last years Whistler befriended both Clifford Adams and his newly married wife and painter, Inez Addams. Many letters between Whistler and this couple are now housed at the Centre for Whistler Studies, University of Glasgow.
	Clifford Addams first exhibited his art in Paris, in 1901, and in London, in 1904. Several years later he was also exhibiting in New York, Boston, Philadelphia and Chicago. He was also a full member of the Chicago Society of Etchers, the Philadelphia Society of Etchers and the Society of American Etchers. Today his art is included in such major collections as the Art Institute of Chicago, The Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, The Library of Congress, The Smithsonian Institute and the National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC.
	Most of Clifford Addams's fine etchings and engravings were created between 1901 and 1925. Many depict street scenes in and around London. Addams appears to have printed most of his art himself and mainly in very small editions. The largest recorded edition is 75 s, while others were often printed in s of ten or less. Seething Lane, London might be a unique . Under the plate-mark to the lower left Adams has written, "1/1 imp." This marvelous drypoint engraving of Seething Lane in London clearly displays the artist's talents of capturing the atmosphere of both crowd scenes and architecture.
