[Drawn & Etched by Rowlandson. Stadler Aquatinta.]
[London: Thomas Tegg, n.d., 1822.]
Aquatint and etching with fine hand colour. Sheet 155 x 215mm (6¼ x 8½"). Laid on card.
A view of the Thames from the Twickenham bank, with Gay's Summer House on the left, looking towards Richmond Hill. From Rowlandson's 'Sketches from Nature': The plate was first published by Rowlandson in a fortnightly series: it was not published in a book until 1822. This is probably an early example, as the aquatint ground in the shore around the horses is more noticable.
