About this work

This print shows a fancy house and garden from 1750. It’s a view you’d see if standing in one spot, like a photo but drawn by hand. The artist used lines to make the buildings feel far away and the garden look neat. It was made for a magazine called Universal Magazin. J. Hinton sold prints in London at “the Kings in Arms” near St. Paul’s Church Yard. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum to see this print.
