The exhibition with its 16000 items on display made the public aware of the fabulous wealth of pictures by old masters and objects of art of every kind hidden away in English country houses and at the same time it opened up a new period of art-historical studies. The preface is at pains to extol the education value of the exhibition and to make known to the people of England the art-wealth of their own country and by inducing a greater familiarity with the beautiful to increase and extend its refining influence.</p><p>gThe Art-Treasures Examinerg contains a series of articles probably under the editorship of the journalist William Blanchard Jerrold who contributed articles on various subjects. Other contributors included Henry Ottley on art criticism schools of painting and engraving; the poet Charles Swain contributing short plays on art; James Astbury Hammersley on watercolour art; George Jackson on photography; Charles Allen Duval on the spirituality of art; G.W. Anthony 'Peregrine Sketchly' on British landscapes and modern painting; a 'History of Caricature' by the radical Dr Robert Blakey and possibly as the most interesting contribution a series of fourteen autobiographical articles by Henry Merritt 1822–1877 the picture conservator and art critic who had risen from a very poor background: 'Where my shoes came from was never satisfactorily explained'.</p><p>British landscape painters and the modern gallery by gBritish Art and Artistsg; a gHistory of Caricatureg by the radical Dr Robert Blakey gModern Galleryg by G.W.

One oblong atlas folio hand-coloured lithograph sized 26 x 20.5 in. still retaining fairly wide borders printing above & below centered image w/ hand-coloured border some minor toning & aging from original backing minor tidemark to upper left corner edgewear slight tears very minor predation scuffing to blank right margin still a nice strong image retaining some of the original colouring.

These beautiful birds-eye views were presented to subscribers of the “Centennial History†by sales agents who were also sent extra circulars and liberal commissions as indicated in the margins. These were apparently issued in different sizes and formats with the Huntington hand-coloured copy containing all the text including the imprint at the lower fore-edge and both the Huntington and American Antiquarian Society copies have smaller margins. Bourquin 1808-1897 was a Swiss-American pioneering Philadelphia lithographer who specialized in county maps and atlases but also was known for his innovative lithography and by 1876 maintained between 6 and 20 skilled lithographers to produce portraits and prints.
