Enchanting Norwich: A Historical 1801 Engraved View by W. Angus and E. Dayes

About the Item

An original hand-colored engraving of Norwich in England. The text within the image provides several pieces of information about the print: 1. "NORWICH." - This is the title of the print, indicating that the image is a depiction of Norwich, a city in England. 2. "Engraved by W. Angus from a drawing by E.Dayes." - This credits the engraver W. Angus and the artist E. Dayes (Edward Dayes), indicating that the engraving was made based on a drawing by Dayes. 3. "For the beauties of England and Wales." - This suggests that the print was part of a series or publication showcasing notable places in England and Wales. 4. "London Published by Vernor & Hood, Poultry Octo.1.1801." - This is the publication information, indicating that the print was published in London by Vernor & Hood, located on Poultry street, on October 1, 1801. The print is likely to be part of a larger work, such as a book or a series of prints, that aimed to illustrate and describe the picturesque and notable locations throughout England and Wales at the beginning of the 19th century. Norwich, being a significant city with historical and cultural importance, would have been a worthy subject for such a collection. The detailed engraving would have served to convey the architectural and scenic beauty of Norwich to readers and viewers of the time.
