Title: Hampshire: near Winchester [Go to resource]
Description: A Romantic idyll. The etching, of an unknown cottage, was done by Francis Stevens as part of a series of views of farmhouses and cottages from drawings by, amongst others, Munn, Varley, Prout and (as here) William Delamotte. They were published in 1815 as a volume of 'English Cottages'. Francis Stevens (1781-1823) was born in Norwich, but worked for a long time in Exeter. His etched plates are considered to be of considerable skill, but perhaps done too much in imitation of engravings. He was one of the originators of the Sketching Society in 1808.
