About This Item
8vo, pp. 12, key consisting of two strips on one folding lithographed plate measuring 310 × 470 mm; a little browned and spotted, plate with tear; in recent marbled wrapper.
The view was taken from the central pavilion in the garden of Parliament Square. In fact the artist chose not to show the pavilion itself since including it would have injured his composition. For the same reason he left out the hand-rail which followed the course of the canvas awning. The text ends with an advertisement for the Lausanne panorama, which 'continues open, in the Upper Circle'; and indeed, there is a two-strip wood engraved folding plate showing this. Very few copies explaining the coronation panorama seem to have this plate. OCLC: 9985123.
