A matched pair of late 19th-century Autotype facsimiles after J.M.W. Turner, reproducing two plates from the Liber Studiorum: 'Hind Head Hill' and 'St Catherine's Hill near Guildford' — both Surrey (Portsmouth Road) subjects. The original plates were published 1811, the mezzotints engraved by Robert Dunkarton.

These are fine sepia Autotype carbon-print facsimiles produced by the Autotype Company, one inscribed 'Autotype Fac-simile' in the margin. They faithfully reproduce the original plates' lettering (the 1811 publication line and 'Engraved by Dunkarton'). Please note these are photographic facsimile reproductions, not original Turner mezzotints.

Both are attractively framed and glazed and display beautifully together as a pair. Condition: good with light age toning. Please view the photographs, which form part of the description.

Dispatch: carefully packed and posted with tracking; UK and international postage available. Please study the photographs as part of the description and message with any questions before buying.
