About this sheet

Antique print titled 'A Section of a New Engine in Painshill Garden (..)'. Print of a new engine in Painshill Garden, which was used to raise the water level of the lake. This print originates from 'The Gentleman's Magazine'.

Artists and Engravers: The Gentleman's Magazine was a monthly magazine founded in London, England, by Edward Cave in January 1731. It ran uninterrupted for almost 200 years, until 1922. It was the first to use the term magazine (from the French magazine, meaning ""storehouse"") for a periodical.
