The Prospect Of Nottingham Orig. 18thC engraving Johannes Jan Kip  Leonard Knyff antique prints %%alt5%% %%alt6%%
A very good original engraving by Johannes "Jan" Kip (1652/53, Amsterdam – 1722, Westminster) who was a Dutch draftsman, engraver and print dealer.
Together with Leonard Knyff, they made a collection of speciality of engraved views of English country houses.
The linked careers of Jan Kip and Leonard Knyff produced this collection of engraved views of English country houses, represented in detail from the bird's-eye view, a pictorial convention for topography.

Their major work was Britannia Illustrata: Or Views of Several of the Queens Palaces, as Also of the Principal seats of the Nobility and Gentry of Great Britain, Curiously Engraven on 80 Copper Plates, London (1707, published in the winter of 1708–9).

The volume is among the most important English topographical publications of the 18th century. Architecture is rendered with care, and the settings of parterres and radiating avenues driven through woods or planted across fields, garden paths, gates and toolsheds are illustrated in detail. The images are staffed with figures and horses, coaches pulling into forecourts, water-craft on rivers, in line with the traditions of the Low Countries. Some of the plates are in the Siennese "map perspective".

This fine print being one of the original set. It displays it's original vertical centre crease as was the norm at the time. It has a number printed lower right (75) presumably the actual print number

The print is in fine condition. There is a key within the footer indicating notable landmarks. The detail is stunning even displaying figures & horses throughout.


Britannia Illustrata, also known as Views of Several of the Queens Palaces and also of the Principal Seats of the Nobility & Gentry of Great Britain is a 1707–09 map plate folio of parts of Great Britain, arguably the most important work of Dutch draughtsman Jan Kip, who collaborated with Leonard Knijff. The folio consisted of a range of large, detailed folded colored and black and white drawings which today provides a valuable insight into land and buildings at country estates at the time.
