Thomas ALLOM. (1804-1872) was a founder member of
the Royal Institute of British Architects. He travelled extensively in Europe &
Asia and produced a large array of fine topographical views.
His amazing eye
for architecture is reflected in the great care and detail with which
each view has been drawn. Many of the pictures include fascinating
figures, children, fashions, boats, farm animals, cattle, horses,
coaches, fox hunting, sheep,
castles, stately homes, churches, cathedrals, busy street scenes,
landscape scenery, etc.
