Fine impression of this splendid view of a sheep and livestock market in the West Sussex town of Chichester, printed on paper watermarked 'J. Whatman'. The famous Chichester Cross, built by the local bishop in the late 15th century, is clearly visible in the centre background of the composition. The armorial in the centre of the letterpress is that of Charles Lennox, 4th Duke of Richmond and Lennox [1764 - 1819], to whom the print is dedicated. By Joseph Francis Gilbert [1792 - 1855], painter who in 1813 was residing at High Street, Portsmouth, and exhibited at the Royal Academy a ‘Landscape and Figures.’ In 1814 he sent ‘The Rustic Traveller crossing the Style,’ and occasionally exhibited in the following years.

He continued to exhibit at the British Institution, Suffolk Street, Royal Manchester Institution, and other exhibitions, principally views in Sussex.
