I am selling this remarkably strong etching of the ruins at the medieval Fountains Abbey in Yorkshire (England) showing the Chapel of the Nine Altars that I understand is famous for its early English Gothic architecture, for AU$227 (currently US$131.67/EUR119.14/GBP104.88 at the time of posting this listing) including postage and handling to anywhere in the world, but not (of course) any import duties/taxes imposed by some countries.
