Item # 33
1794 The North West Prospect of St Paul's Cathedral Hand Colored Engraving.
Depicting St Paul’s from a north-westerly axis was particularly popular among printmakers as Wren’s iconic dome and twin-towered west front could be shown to full advantage. It was first published by John Bowles for his series Perspective Views in and about London. It was reissued in 1794 by (Henry) Carington Bowles II (1763–about 1830) and Samuel Carver.
Presented in a gold gilt frame, double matted.
D: 27" W x 22" H including frame.
