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 This is an excellent example of a mid-nineteenth century architectural view and also a fascinating historical document.
