Inhoud:

In the midst of a resurgence of pride in Ireland's history during the 18th century, William Burton, later Conyngham (1733-1796), strove to emulate his British counterparts in producing albums of engravings illustrating the beauties of the country's heritage. This catalogues more than 600 drawings, which he was known to have secured by about 1780.
