Description
No. 207. From a series of five volumes, half-bound in dark green leather with cloth boards and gold lettering; for description and comment see other impression. A second version of No. 17153, more heavily shaded and more effectively drawn, with later date. The road slopes more steeply and skirts dangerous precipices as it curves to the right, leading to a bridge over which is another preilous curve. William IV leans from the window. The inscriptions are as before, with slight variations in underlining, &c. 21 June 1832 Lithograph
