EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from 1880 showcases the majestic Alnwick Castle in Northumberland, England. The artwork, created by Alexander Francis Lydon and engraved by Benjamin Fawcett in the Baxter process, beautifully captures the grandeur of this historic landmark. Alnwick Castle, built in 1096, is a Norman castle that underwent renovations in the 18th and 19th centuries. Architects Robert Adam, James Paine, Anthony Savin, and Luigi Canina all played a part in shaping its current appearance. The castle's bridge and moat are featured prominently in this print. Surrounded by landscaped grounds designed by Capability Brown, Alnwick Castle stands as a testament to British aristocracy and architectural brilliance. It has been home to generations of nobility throughout history. The intricate details of this engraving allow viewers to appreciate both the external view of the castle and its surrounding beauty.

This artwork offers us a glimpse into life during the late 19th century when grand manor houses like Alnwick Castle were symbols of wealth and prestige within British society.
