These two men (brothers) have produced some of the most well known engravings of topographical views in England and Wales. I am endeavouring to find out exactly how many were actually of castles, and will try to post as many here as I can possibly find.

Please go to the following posting to find a list of castle prints currently on this site, in the order in which they appear.

Some beautiful works of art. I am sure they would be harder to locate here in the States than over there. Lucky man to own so many! Yes_Man.gif

Have you by chance ever seen one of theirs depicting the Pencoed Castle in Wales? Would love to see if there were any pictures or engravings that we might find to get a copy of. Is the Morgan/Morcant family castle.

I don't actually own the originals of all these - just copies. The only original I own is one of Crickhowell Castle, which I'll post later.
Galla
ah..I see. Well, hopefully I can afford the copies a little easier than not. biggrin.gif

I was also able to locate a digital photo area where you can purchase prints (unforutnately I am unable as of yet to read Welsh), that has a copy of the Pencoed Mansion. Great site to take a peek at, if you might be looking for more. Looks like most date from the 1700's and 1800's.

Welsh is one language that escapes me. I can not get even the slightest mental beginnings of it at all!
I don't think Babel Fish does it either.
