This is an old book cover with a faded red and brown color scheme. The edges are worn, and the center has a gold design showing a building with a dome and columns. The title is stamped in gold letters at the top and bottom. The book’s title mentions cities like Paris and Antwerp, hinting it might show drawings of buildings. The gold design looks like a fancy print, which was common in travel books from that time. If you like old travel books, check out The Cleveland Museum of Art to see more like this.
Thomas Shotter Boys (1803–1874) was an English watercolour painter and lithographer, mostly producing cityscapes and images of buildings, although he produced some rural landscapes and marine subjects.
