Choose options
Florence, Italy, by Elizabeth Frances Batty presents a panoramic view of Florence set within the surrounding Tuscan hills, drawn during Batty's travels through Italy and engraved by Charles Heath for publication in London. The elevated perspective reveals the city's architectural harmony and layered atmosphere, characteristic of the topographical print tradition popular with English travelers in the early 19th century. Batty, an English artist active in the 1810s and 1820s, is known almost exclusively through this single published collection of Italian views.
Artist: Elizabeth Frances Batty (1791–1875). Date: 1820.
