Thomas H. Shepherd was one of the most prolific architectural and topographical illustrators of the early 19th Century. His original paintings formed the basis of many steel engravings that would show how cities would develop from the late Georgian period.This volume is dedicated to work drawn from his sketching tour of Edinburgh in the late 1820s as that city was beginning to develop a colossal new town that remains visible to this day. It contains 75 illustrations of buildings and views of Georgian Edinburgh taken as the new town was being established. This collection is brought together by the author, Stephen Brown, and put in one volume, allowing the reader to seek out remaining buildings and views around "auld reekie".Shepherd is noted for his attention to detail and methodical approach. Consequently, these steel etchings from his paintings are instantly recognisable by anyone who has visited Edinburgh even up to the modern day.Other Books By the AuthorWho Killed Mary Gunn?
