Description: On offer: an original (i.e. not a later reproduction) antique print "Earls Barton Church, Northamptonshire. South Door Way & Parts of Tower." DATE PRINTED: 1818 (dated on print) SIZE: The printed area, including titles, is approximately 22.5 x 16.5 cm (8.75 x 6.5 inches) plus margins with a blank back (medium). ARTIST/CARTOGRAPHER/ENGRAVER: Engraved by John Le Keux from a drawing by F. Mackenzie. Frederick Mackenzie (1788(?)-1854) was a British watercolour painter and architectural draughtsman. PROVENANCE: This print was published in "The Architectural Antiquities of Great Britain...by John Britton" published by Longman & Co, Paternoster Row and J Taylor High Holborn London by John Britton. John Britton FSA (1771–1857) was an English antiquary, author and editor. After some slight successes as a writer, a Salisbury publisher commissioned him to compile an account of Wiltshire and, in conjunction with his friend Edward Wedlake Brayley, Britton produced The Beauties of Wiltshire (1801; 2 vols., a third added in 1825), the first of the series The Beauties of England and Wales, nine volumes of which Britton and his friend wrote. Britton was the originator of a new class of literary works. "Before his time", says Digby Wyatt, "popular topography was unknown." In 1805 Britton published the first part of his Architectural Antiquities of Great Britain (9 vols., 1805–1814); and this was followed by Cathedral Antiquities of England.
