EDITORS COMMENTS
This trio of handcoloured copperplate engravings presents a glimpse into the historical landscape of Portugal as depicted in Rev. Isaac Taylor's 'Scenes in Europe' published in London in 1819 by John Harris. The first image (no. 79) portrays a devout Catholic kneeling before a statue of a saint, showcasing Portugal's rich religious heritage. The second scene (no. 80) transports us back in time, as a peasant family threshes corn using oxen, offering a window into the daily rural life of Portugal. The third engraving (no. 81) is an evocative reminder of the devastating Lisbon earthquake of 1755. The image powerfully conveys the aftermath of the disaster, with the city's landmarks reduced to rubble, as people gather in shock and sorrow. These engravings offer a fascinating insight into Portugal's history, culture, and daily life during the Regency and Georgian eras. The intricate details and vibrant colours bring the scenes to life, making them an essential educational resource for children and an engaging amusement for the curious traveller. The engravings also serve as a reminder of the historical connections between Portugal and England, with the coach and horse-drawn carriage in the background of the first scene hinting at the land routes between the two nations. The presence of St. Paul's Cathedral in the third scene further emphasizes the European context of these historical views. These captivating images not only provide a visual record of Portugal's past but also offer a glimpse into the shared history and cultural connections between Portugal and England during the 19th century.
