Some Background information about the prints and the illustrators
The prints in this work are small and delicate. They depict principal buildings, towns and cities within the county of Kent, England.
Although they are of a small size, these images are not lacking in detail or appeal. The Stately homes are shown amongst their beautiful grounds and the general views of towns and cities include as many of the important structures as possible.
The artists have composed the most interesting of scenes within these miniature views depicting architecture, horses, dogs, people etc. with accuracy.

My name is Julie Bennett and I recently retired
to the Bahamas after a career in
education in England.
Jacques Bossuet (1627 - 1704),
the French Bishop & author, wrote that Geography is one of the
principal eyes of History. Such is the fascination of old,
historical maps & engravings, that before emigrating, it became my
hobby to offer
antiquarian
items on eBay & I have decided to resume, hoping to make yet more new
friends.
My offers include a range of collectables, from decorative fine art, topographical views,
pictures and lithographs to rare, scarce vintage ancient & classical county and
country
maps,
historic town and city plans,
books and atlases. I offer many examples of famous artists work and of the engravers art through the
centuries. You will also find cartography from leading mapmakers, geographical topography, memorabilia
& other geographic ephemera for collectors, interior designers & decorators,
genealogy researchers
as well as retail trade customers and frame shops.
Antique maps and prints make unusual & interesting gift ideas and
presents, for birthday, anniversary, children or just for your own
collection & pleasure, be it for home wall decor, den, nursery or office
presentations!
Ideal for framing.
