Description
John George Wood was a British engraver and publisher based in London. Primarily a watercolorist, he exhibited at the Royal Academy from 1793 to 1811 and also published works on perspective. William Green was a British painter and engraver who began his career as a surveyor in Manchester. He studied with the prominent painter Landseer and went on to produce mainly aquatints, usually of his own watercolors and drawings. A friend of the poets Wordsworth and Coleridge, he published a series of views of the Lake District and North of England between 1794 and 1822. Green also exhibited at the Royal Academy. Wood and Green collaborated on the colorplate book “Views of the Noblemen’s and Gentlemen’s Seats of Kent.” This print might have been issued in that set, though we have not been able to verify this.
Condition: Generally very good with the usual light toning, wear, handling, soft creases. Few short marginal tears restored verso and with the print’s large margins will be easily matted out for framing.
