<b>American Revolution</b><hr><b>Lot of 30 Historic Prints of English Kings and Queens</b>

<b>1783, 30 Large Prints of Kings and Queens from Barnard’s “New Complete & Authentic History of England,” all Very Fine or better.</b>
Each print measures approximately 15” x 9.5” and all have an elaborate “faux” framing drawn in “3D” uncolored print on heavy, fine laid paper. Drawn and engraved by a variety of artists, most prints feature a single monarch, although some prints have four panels and four monarchs, going all the way back to Julius Caesar. Each print is bright, with remarkably clean and crisp appearances. These were once used to illustrate Barnard’s big “History” book; this one, like so many others, was cut apart for the prints (the sum of the parts exceeds that of the whole). If you’re into British history, you can fill your walls with these exciting prints.
