Notes

A view of Horse Guards seen from Whitehall through an arch.

From the series ‘Six Views of London’, by Edward Rooker. Rooker made the series of prints after drawings by the artists and brothers Paul and Thomas Sandby, and his son Michael ‘Angelo’ Rooker, whose teasing nickname was given to him by the Sandby brothers, and eventually stuck.
