Lower Lake as it appears from Dolbaddern - original antique print from 1809 book

This handsome original antique print comes from a disbound copy of an 1809 book titled "Observations on Several Parts of the Counties of Cambridge, Norfolk, Suffolk, and Essex; Also on Several Parts of North Wales; Relative Chiefly to Picturesque Beauty, in Two Tours, the Former Made in the Year 1769, the Latter in the Year 1773" by William Gilpin, an English artist, Church of England cleric, schoolmaster and author. He is best known as a travel writer and as one of those who originated the idea of the picturesque. This print measures 5.25 x 8.5 inches and shows just some minor wear and a bit of soil. Paper has browned slightly. Rougher edge were it was bound into the book.
