Dick Note: the title in the table above is printed below the engraving AN ANTIQUE STEEL ENGRAVING MADE IN the 1840s !! ITEM IS OVER 125 YEARS OLD! VERY OLD WORLD! INCREDIBLE DETAIL!. Leslie painted this picture in the perfection of his powers ; it is illustrative of the following passage from Addison's " Spectator." "As soon as the sermon is finished, nobody presumes to stir till Sir Roger is gone out of the Church. The Knight walks down from his seat in the chancel between a double row of his tenants, that stand bowing to him on each side ; and every now and then asks how such an one's wife or mother, or son, or father do, whom he does not see at Church; which is understood as a secret reprimand to the person that is absent."

Please note: the terms used in our auctions for engraving, heliogravure, lithograph, print, plate, photogravure etc. are ALL prints on paper, NOT blocks of steel or wood. "ENGRAVINGS", the term commonly used for these paper prints, were the most common method in the 1700s and 1800s for illustrating old books, and these paper prints or "engravings" were inserted into the book with a tissue guard frontis, usually on much thicker quality rag stock paper, although many were also printed and issued as loose stand alone prints. So this auction is for an antique paper print(s). BUY MORE THAN ONE TO SAVE ON SHIPPING!
