About this sheet

Antique print titled 'Folkestone'.

This print depicts the town of Folkestone (United Kingdom) as seen from the East, the viewpoint high on the cliffs above the Warren, with cattle and sheep grazing on the grassy chalk above Wear Bay. Beyond are two Martello Towers and, in the distance, with a dramatic sky as backdrop, lies the sunlit town with the parish church as its focus. Originates from 'Britannia Delineata' by Hullmandel.

Artists and Engravers: Charles Joseph Hullmandel (ca. 1789-ca. 1860) was a pupil of Senefelder. He was one of the very early lithographers in England.
