Prospect of the City of Carlisle in Cumberland

Anonymous copper engraving from The Complete English Traveller; or, A New Survey and Description of England and Wales by Nathaniel Spencer, published 1771.

Image size: 6 1/8" x 10 7/8", plus title and margins.

Generally very good condition throughout, some age staining (and light offsetting of text) as expected. See image.

The view of the city and the arrangement of the figures and foliage in the foreground clearly derive from the engraving 'A North-West Prospect of the City of Carlisle', by Samuel and Nathaniel Buck, published 1745.

£40.00 unmounted, unframed
