Attack on the French gun boats at Boulogne

Copper engraving. A plate from Frederick Lloyd's An Accurate and Impartial Life of the Late Lord Viscount Nelson. Printed and published by J. Fowler, Ormskirk, 1806.

Size of paper: 8 1/8" x 9 7/8"

Generally good condition for its age. Time spotting thoroughout, vertical folds as issued.

An exceedingly scarce print engraved in a pleasingly naive manner, originally issued for a life of Nelson aimed at the popular market. The ephemeral nature of the original publication has meant that few of these engravings have survived.

P.O.A.
