BOWLES, CARINGTON. Twelve Remarable Views in North America and West Indies. Complete suite of 12 engraved views, each approximately 175x280 mm, wide margins. Oblong folio, disbound; stitched. London, circa 1790

  • Notes: The majority of the views deal with Canadian subjects, but there is a view of Havana and four views of American sites: New York City, Charles Town [Charleston, SC], Bethlehem [PA], and Cohoes Fall on the Mohawk River. The New York view is a reduction of the Howdell-Canot southeast view. According to Stokes in his Iconography (plate 37), the scenes were to be viewed in a diagonal mirror.
