Description: | This is Bewick's trade card that was probably engraved for a visit to Edinburgh in 1825. Notice how beautifully his name is set within a simple necklace of pearls. The graceful style of the card shows the influence of his contemporary, the Neo-classical architect Robert Adam (1728-1792). Robert Elliot Bewick engraved this card from a drawing made by his father, Thomas Bewick. | Publisher: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Temporal: | Production date: 1825 | Source: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Creator: | Robert Elliot Bewick | Identifier: | http://www.twmuseums.org.uk/discoveringb... | Go to resource |
