NEWNHAM PRIORY, BEDFORD, S&N BUCK original antique print 1730
NEWNHAM PRIORY, BEDFORD, S&N BUCK original antique print 1730

Product Description


THE EAST VIEW OF BEDFORD PRIORY

Drawn & Engraved by Samuel and Nathaniel Buck

Published London 1730

An impressive copper engraved view of Bedford or Newnham Priory, Newnham, in Bedford, England.

An excellent example of the highly collectible "Buck's Views". Dated in the plate.

Historical notes are displayed beneath the engraving which explains that the Baron of Bedford built the priory to rehouse the monks at D'Newenham after one of the canons "kill'd a butcher in a fray".

Fine condition, free of repairs or restoration. A crisp, dark impression printed on heavy grade hand laid paper.

This would frame up beautifully for display. 

Approx. 14.5" x 7.5" (370mm x 195mm) to the clear platemark.
Sheet size approx. 18" x 11" (460mm x 280mm)

The brothers Samuel and Nathaniel Buck left a fine legacy of detailed engravings of castles, monuments and other antiquities which are highly valued today as fascinating records of these buildings as they were in the early part of the 18th century.
They began with the "Views of Ruins of Castles and Abbeys in England" usually known today as "Buck's Views", issued as loose prints although later often bound in book form. Panoramic townscapes or "Buck's Prospects"followed later.

A GENUINE ANTIQUE PRINT GUARANTEED OVER 250 YEARS OLD FROM LINDISFARNE PRINTS
