Moot Hall, Leeds
by Charles Heath.1816Engraving on paper Size 298 mm x 375 mm .Close printed at the bottom edge ie the dedication is almost on the edge of the paper. rare easrly town view all now gone £85 inc . ..Moot Hall built about 1618. Rebuilt in 1710. Demolished in 1826 and a corn exchange built at the top of Briggate. The white marble statue of Queen Anne by Andrew Carpenter, gift of Alderman Milner, was placed in front of Moot Hall 1713, and removed to top of Briggate in 1828 before going to the City Art Gallery. Moot Hall was the scene of many pageants notably when Charles 1 made the town into a Royal Borough. The heads of three executed men in 1664 were also said to have been placed on spikes at Moothall End . . . .The landscape and figure engraver Charles Heath was one of the most active and influential figures in British book production over the first half of the nineteenth-century. The son of James Heath, Engraver to the King, he was born on 1 March 1785. Apprenticed to his father, he made such rapid progress that in 1801, Benjamin West, President of the Royal Academy, commissioned him to engrave his large painting Our Lord Healing the Sick. He was soon so much in demand that he formed an atelier of assistants and pupils. As work produced by the atelier was invariably signed by Heath, it is often difficult to distinguish his own contribution from that of his co-workers. At first Heath and his atelier specialised in topographical prints but they soon turned to figure work, contributing prolifically to popular editions of English classics. Heath has been credited with producing, for Thomas Campbell's Pleasures of Hope (1820), the first British published plates to feature engraving on steel rather than copper. Heath was certainly among the first to grasp the commercial advantage of steel over copper plates. This pic is much larger if downloaded/copied
