On offer: an original (i.e. not a later reproduction) antique print “Chester Castle”, Cheshire. Offered with the original sheet of text describing the view. DATE PRINTED: 1804, from a plate first published in 1764. SIZE: The printed area including titles is approximately 11.5 x 11 cm (4.5 x 4.25 inches) plus margins with a blank back (small). ARTIST/CARTOGRAPHER/ENGRAVER: Engraved by J. Ryland from an original study by Benjamin Ralph (active 1763-1770). The plate had minor retouching by John Metcalf (1717-1810) for the 1804 edition. John Ryland was an engraver, printer and printseller, based at St. Martin Ludgate 1776 and later the Old Bailey. He clearly had some challenges as he was declared bankrupt in August 1776 and again on 6 Dec. 1788. PROVENANCE: This view was first published in 1764 by R & J Dodsley for, “England Illustrated or, a Compendium of the Natural History, Geography, Topography, and Antiquities Ecclesiastical and Civil, of England and Wales: with maps of the several counties, and engravings of many remains of antiquity, remarkable buildings, and principal towns.” The plates were re-issued in 1804 under the title, “England Delineated.” with the artist and engravers name removed. On offer is an example from the 1804 publication.TYPE: Antique copper plate engraving printed on paper. VERSO: There is nothing printed on the reverse side, which is blank. CONDITION: Good; suitable for framing. Please check the scan for any blemishes prior to making your purchase.

The castle stands on an eminence overlooking the River Dee. In the castle complex are the remaining parts of the medieval castle together with the neoclassical buildings designed by Thomas Harrison which were built between 1788 and 1813.
