Observations on the state of the highways By John Hawkins Clergyman, schoolmaster and writer on aesthetics, William Gilpin (1724-1804) is best known for his works on the picturesque. In his Essay on Prints, published in 1768 and reissued in this series, he defined picturesque as 'a term expressive of that peculiar kind of beauty, which is agreeable in a picture'. First published in 1789, this two-volume work forms part of a series which records his reflections on the picturesque across British landscapes. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection.

The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works.
