About this Item
Hand-coloured copper engraved view, 10 x 15 inches, with title, and good margins. Framed and glazed in conservation materials. A very good example. The second issue of the earliest engraved view of the town, first published in Hasted's monumental 'History of Kent' published over the years 1778-1798. This plate shows a view of Folkestone from the sea, before the harbour was built. This second edition view differs from the first in that the sky and edges have been trimmed and a new less elaborate title engraved, for the smaller edition of the text reissued in 1800.
