Nash J - 2 lithographs of Haddon Hall, Derbyshire 1869 - These two lithographs of The Drawing Room and The Banqueting Hall at Haddon Hall, Derbyshire are from The Mansions of England in the Olden Time by Joseph Nash. Printed by M & N Hanhart and published by Henry Sotheran & Co., London, in four parts from 1869-1872. Nash was a draftsman and lithographer of architectural views, trained by Augustus C. Pugin. He produced a number of folio series showing architectural images of England, both interiors and exteriors. This is an excellent example of a mid-nineteenth century architectural view and also a fascinating historical document. This is regarded as Nash's most famous work - a formidable series of views of Tudor domestic architecture. Size: approx. 10.5in x 14.5in (26cm x 37cm)
