Tranquil View of The Solway from Harrington Harbour in England, 1841

About the Item

This image is a historical print titled "The Solway," showing a view from Harrington Harbour in Cumberland. It was drawn by W.H. Bartlett and engraved by R. Brandard, and it was published by George Virtue in London in 1841. The scene depicts the coastal area around the Solway Firth, with ships in the water and a bustling harbor town in the foreground. This hand-colored print was part of the series "Findens Views of the Ports, Harbours, Coast Scenery, and Watering Places of Great Britain," which W.H. Bartlett continued. The print combines natural scenery with human activity, providing a snapshot of the historical maritime landscape. The view depicted in the print, titled "The Solway (from Harrington Harbour)," is in England. Harrington is a small coastal town located in Cumbria, which is on the northwestern coast of England. It overlooks the Solway Firth, a firth that forms part of the border between England and Scotland. While the Solway Firth itself stretches between both England and Scotland, Harrington Harbour, specifically mentioned in the title of the print, is on the English side.
