Unframed Print. Condizione: Very Good. Alexander Francis Lydon (illustratore). An original 1860 colour print, image 13 x 19 cms, from Morris' work A Series of Picturesque Views of Seats of the Noblemen & Gentlemen of Great Britain and Ireland. Together with brief accompanying text pages. Printed using the coloured woodblock process known as Baxter Printing, by Benjamin Fawcett of Driffield, these bright and attractively coloured prints are often mistaken for chromolithographs. It has been noted that the printing is so subtle that it gives the appearance of a watercolour (Friedman, 1978). The print comes with a backing card, the accompanying descriptive text and is nicely presented in a cellophane sleeve, making a perfect present. IDEAL FOR FRAMING. Illustrator: Alexander Francis Lydon. Category: Prints from Morris' Seats; PRINTS : Buildings & Places; Antique Colour Prints. Cosmo Books : 29 years on ABE, 47 years taking care of customers.

Unframed Photograph Print. Condizione: Very Good. 1st Edition. Rushton Hall's east front was built by the Tresham family; later home to Charles Dickens's friend Clara Thornhill. Charles Latham was one of the most influential architectural photographers of the late Victorian and Edwardian periods, renowned for his evocative images of country houses and formal gardens across Britain and Italy. His work helped define the visual language of architectural publishing and preservation. His first major commission was for J. Alfred Gotch's Architecture of the Renaissance in England (1894), from which this photograph is taken, where his collotype plates captured the texture and grandeur of Elizabethan and Jacobean houses with remarkable clarity. Latham later helped shape the visual identity of Country Life magazine (which we always have in stock), photographing both historic estates and newly built homes. His images became central to the magazine's appeal, combining editorial elegance with technical innovation in print reproduction. Each of Charles Latham's architectural photographs captures a singular moment of craftsmanship, patronage, or domestic ambition, from heraldic chimney-pieces to formal garden fronts. Whether collegiate, civic, or aristocratic, these buildings speak to the stylistic confidence of their age. Many remain inhabited, studied, or preserved today, making each image not just a historical record, but a quietly resonant portrait of continuity. Published in 1894, this fine Victorian-period image has been carefully removed from Gotch's monumental work. Printed in Leipzig, Germany, by Sinsel & Co., on thick, cream-coloured paper, this image reflects the firm's hallmark clarity and tonal depth, featuring the building's name in sepia ink below a ruled border, with Latham's beautifully composed black-and-white photograph taking centre place. POSTED ROLLED. Size: 34 x 47 cms. Category: Architecture; English Country House Photographs; J. Alfred Gotch's Architecture; Charles Latham Photographs. This item may require more postage than the rates shown for delivery outside the UK. If extra postage is required we will contact you before processing your order and you will be given the details and option to decline the extra cost.
