Notes: | This item is held in the Department of Ephemera. Broadside sheet advertising W. B. Taylor's "History of the University of Dublin". William Benjamin Sarsfield Taylor (1781-1850) according to Strickland's 1913 'A Dictionary of Irish Artists' never completed this prosed venture - "...the issue of the work was begun in 1820, but it failed to enlist the support of the public, and only a few of the plates were published. They were drawn and etched by Taylor himself, and aquatinted, some by Bluck and others by Havell". Physical description: 1 sheet; 18.7 x 25.6 cm more |
